Was just wondering if anyone has any Cories, i am looking to get some for my 15 and would like to know a bit about them first.

I know they need to be kept in groups so am looking at getting at getting 4 if a larger species or 6/7 if smaller.

So anyone got any experience or recommendations with these guys

Yep, kept cory's for 4 years. They should have a cave or some cover or something to hide under. As you said, yes they do need to be kept in small groups to be happy. Feed them wafters as mine seem to love them. But it is eaisy to overfeed with wafters as sometimes a break mine in half so they are not overfed.

well i have some cory sized pellets from my plecos some where, do you have sand or gravel with yours, i heard they prefer sand but i am not sure on whether i want sand, seems like too much work when doing water changes for me lol

what species do you keep D&D?

I have panda corys. It doesn't really matter what substrate you have but they don't need sand but as long as the substrate does not have sharp edges they will be fine.

that shouldn't be a problem then i thinking of getting some black gravel since i currently have blue and white Rolling Eyes

aw panda's are cute, the only ones i seem to find are albino's, so may get a few of them or try somewhere else Very Happy
