Couple Of Questions

[jsmathieson]

1- I just put Panda corys in with my albino corys... and they are all acting shy... it's been about a month and they are still acting weird... is this normal? will they get happy again? or did I make a mistake putting panda's in with albino's?

2- It' a 10 gal tank with the 5 corys in it... could I possible put Neon Tetra's in there to? if so how many?

Thanks for any help

One inch of fish per gallon is the general rule although there are exceptions.
I would guess probably not on the tetras if you want to keep all your corries.

I don't know much about cories but I do know they like to be in groups of 5 or 6 and I would assume like other species, they like to be with their own kind, so I don't know if mixing the albino's and the panda's are ok. They would prob like to be in groups of 5 or 6 of their own specific breed. But maybe I'm just blowing smoke of out you know where.

And no, prob can't add anymore fish unless you need something the swims in the middle to upper so maybe like a beta, something small and able to live on it's own.

Thanks for the responses... I did have a betta in there and it didn't work out well... The corys aren't very big... the panda's are under an inch...

Any other sugestions on what I could to to make my corys happy? Should I find the panda's a new home and put in more albino's? What is a good fish that stays in the middle to upper that can be alone? I am gonna get a bigger tank in the next few months.. should I just wait till then to put more fishies in?
