Slippy is in with a group of nine Pygmy Corys, he takes absolutely no notice of them.


Maybe it's the fact that they out number him quite a lot

Make sure you have a spare tank you can put one or the other into should it not work out

Put the cories in FIRST. If you put the betta in first he will think that they are invading HIS so called territory and be more likely to attack. If they are in there before him, they just become part of the scenery .
