Do You Think Some Corys Could Be Added ?

[Glod]

I have some dwarf corys in my tanks and my dad has fallen in love with them.

He has a 4ft (300 ltr) community tank with Pearl Gouramis, Cardinal and Rummynose Tetras, 2 BN plecs (one is 6" the other just under 3") and a Rubbernose plec (probably a little under 3") with a few platies (home grown, lol) and 3 Zebra Loaches.

I think the only problem is his gravel which is about 3-5mm in size, is this insurmountable as far as corys go ? (my own tanks have sand, so not sure how they handle it.)

He'd like to add maybe half a dozen corys to the existing community, what do you think ? Shall I tell the LFS not to sell him any ?

i think theres enough space in that tank

There's plenty of space, and the gravel, while not ideal, should be ok as long as it is kept clean with gravel vacs every now and then.
