Advice for the Lovelorn Pygmy Lover

[vanalisa]

I love my pygmy corydoras but I don't think they love me.

I fell in love with them the minute I set eyes on them.

I can tell they love each other but they're leaving me out.

I waited and watched forever for them to come my way.

I dreamed for the day when we could be together at last

I rinsed the sand so many times I think there was more sand rinsed out of the tank then left in the tank.

Every every time I go to watch them and try to win their affection they either skittle off away in groups or pairs...or they freeze into place like a statue (hoping I don't see them, no doubt, and holding their fishy breath---or whatever that would be).

I've even seen them avert their eyes when I try to make eye contact.

How can I win their true love?
I'll try anything and eagerly await your advice with salty tear drenched baited human breath.

I love my little cories,

I could tell you many stories,

Of how they derp and dive,

Had 6 - now I have 5.
