Which Corydoras?

[Burny]

Hi guys and gals,
Just got my tank set up and has been cycling for a while now, it's 15gallon tank and I love corydoras but just don't know what sort to go for, my tank is planted with a large cave, is this an ideal environment for corydoras? And how many would be best?
Cheers burny

Im really sorry but you wouldent even get one in there, they can grow up too 7cm. and they require a 20 gallon aquarium to be happy.

Your tank is too small

Should really check before I post it's a 15gallon tank not a 15ltr

A 15g is fine for a group of 6. I'd look for the smaller type of cory, as some of them do get quite big. They prefer a sand substrate as they forage through it for food. And what does "has been cycling for a while now" mean? Cory need an established tank to do well.
