I have a 5 gallon tank with 3 cories in it. There used to be a betta in there but he died and I'm looking for some new tankmates for the cories. The betta was pretty mild mannered but ever since he's been gone the cories seem to be much happier. Any suggestions?
 
You'll need a fish that is small AND doesn't move around fast. My suggestion is a couple Bumblebee Gobies.They're brackish, but since I've seen LFS's keeping them with freshwater types, am quite sure they'd fit into your tank.

(Hope I'm not putting my foot in it! :) )
 
I would not put brackish gobbies in with freshwater cories. I agree with clutterydrawer, guppies would be good as they are small, pretty and live on another level from the cories and so would not overcrowd.

:)
 
I would do 2-3 endlers.

You won't have to worry about breeding, because you won't find pure female endlers in a lfs.
