First Few Fish...

[TropicalLad21]

So i went to pet shop this morning & got some fish for my tank.

I got 1x albino cory and didnt relise it's best to have at least 3-4 (even though the pet shop never said anything) so i will make another trip sometime early next week - but will the 1 be okay on his own till then?

I also got 4x neons.

They all seem to be adapting quite well... albino cory is very active i must say!

What other fish would mix well with these baring in mind i only have a 35 litre fish tank?

I don't think your tank is big enough for Any of the bigger Cories tbh...

Did you cycle the filter before you got fish? Or did you just fill the tank with water and go "yey, water, time for fish!" ?

I've cycled the filter already. I wouldn't never just fill the tank & put fish straight in.

Cool, had to ask, as this forum tends to have a mass influx of people on a daily basis who do just that

I echo the above, albino corys are too big for that size tank, you should be looking at 6 pandas, or even better, some pgymy corys.

Agreed, tank is too small for a decent population of corys - 3 or 4 isn't really enough. I would return or rehome this cory. Pygmies could work. What is your substrate like?

Edit: Never mind, I see you started a new thread on this.
