Dwarf Corydoras (Corydoras hastatus)

[juniorcat]

i read that they cannot be kept with some types of fish coz they're small and might get attacked? can i get a few of these to put with my zebra danios?? zebras are peaceful fish... right? and does anyone know where i can get more info on Dwarf Cories? thx...

How big of a tank? Decorations? How many cories and danios?

The danios should leave them alone if there are enough danios in the tank and if the tank is deep or has hiding places. I don't think size really makes a difference to danios unless the other fish is big enough to eat them.

around 6 gal... with 4 zebras in it now... and a sort of 'cave' thing on the bottom... one chinese algae eater, which i have to rehome soon because i recently found out the tank's too small for it... i got it accidentally because the shopkeeper told me to get one of them with teh zebras..

geez how much smaller can cories get..

around one inch? that's what most sites say about Corydoras hastatus... i think chinese algae eaters get up to ten?
