[SamTench]

i'm a massive fan of C. paleatus (peppered)...

 

[snowyangel]

Has anyone here ever tried a corys-only tank? I guess it would be a pretty boring top- and mid-section, but it would be worth it!

I've got *half* cories The rainbowfish are a nice complement to the cories

U never had a cory so u wont know about them!...they explore the tank in groups, very peaceful and likes to play!!!!!!

so how would you know I never had a cory? Its true, but I work in an lfs and we stock both plecos and 3 types of corydora. and if it's a pleco, slurping glass is better than grubbing in the muck. Have you ever seen a fully grown common pleco with all his fins out, sailing around the tank? better than a cory anyday.

LOL..no..do pleco school???

anyways..cories are better than plec anyday!...what are u even thinking?.. have u ever tried breeding cories?

if u say cories eat in the muck?..that proves u dont even know about cories, they deserve a balenced diet, they don't eat ..in the..."muck?" if you dont change the water and gravel clean often enough, yes, they will be forced to eat in the "muck" but my cories are healthy and they have a balenced diet, flakes, bloodworms, shrimp pellets, sinking warfers.

IMO keeping them in a petshop is not the same with keeping them in your tanks, and again, i would never have a pleco, they are imo ugly...and cories are cute

Mine are Albino's and Emeralds, in other words, MY CORIES! There's so much fun to have when watching them zip around the tank!

I just got two corydoras similis the other day (although the stupid guy in the shop sold them to me as peppered corys... won't go there again). They are very cute (my husband thinks so too) and if you watch long enough they may just wink at you....

I was quite surprised actually that they don't stay on they bottom all the time and have actually seen them taking bits of food from the surface.... one of my swordtails seems a bit put off by their intrusion but otherwise they are getting on just fine... will post a pic when our digital camera arrives... they are apparently quite rare here in Australia....

I voted C. Schwartzi, but i recently added 4 C.Paleatus to my tank and they are always moving! so they would have to be a close second!
