I have 4 Pepper Corydoras in my unheated 29 gallon tank (temperature stays around 72°F). I plan on adding 2 more so they are more comfortable together. Before that though, I had a question about substrate. I have a planted tank gravel in there now with leaf litter covering most of the bottom, should I top the gravel with sand? I have been reading that sand is better for their barbels and I don't want them to get scratched up.
I also have the option of moving them to a 30 gallon tank I will be setting up here soon, with Peacock Gudgeons and maybe some small tetra, along with a green BN pleco.
