[BETTY BOO]

A school of kuhli loaches or cory cats.

 

[BETTY BOO]

sterbai or panda corys ?? not keen on loaches

WOW that is one big fishy in your sig

 

[Fishy friend2]

i would recommend that you get 2 more rabsoras, and 12 pygmy cories, as pandas have been known to suddenly drop dead for no apperant reason

 

[BETTY BOO]

yeah i was gonna add another few rasboras.especially now 1 died today.
just took a look at the pygmys and im not sure ya no??

 

[Fishy friend2]

you can have 6-8 maybe even 10 sterbais in that tank

 

[BETTY BOO]

no i have white gravel im my tank snake007.
i have never kept corys before.i know they prefer sand but would gravel cause a problem for them???
6 sterbai would be fab

 

[Fishy friend2]

gravel is a bad choice for cories as it can wear down there barbles and irritate there underbellies leading to fungal infections
if the gravel is small and smooth then i dont see it causing a problem in your tank, as only "regular" "rough" gravel will have a bad affect on them

 

[BETTY BOO]

i just read that on a cory care fact sheet then you posted it. no worrys.i should just stick with what ive got then.its rough gravel so not good for them.

do you think if i added 2 more bolivians it would be war.i know many people who have had no problems??

 

[Fishy friend2]

i would add a bit more cover for the fish and then you could have a couple more bolivions, after that it should work out well
