I have a 145l tank stocked with mopani wood, plants, 4 neon tetra, 4 guppies, 2 dwarf gourami, 3 balloon mollies and, as of today, 6 corydoras (3 julii, 3 pepper).
It is a very peaceful tank, but the mollies hog the sinking pellets I put in for the corydoras. I have been feeding the fish at the same time hoping the mollies don't notice the falling pellets, but no, they're onto them and love to nibble on them for ages meaning my corydoras only get in if they're lucky.
I'm happy to return the 3 mollies if that's what the advice is...
The photo is of one of my peppers because they are just great.

I’d use distraction feeding it’s a pain but slowly feed the mollys in one end of the tank until they are all there like hungry hippos then drop some catfish pellets in at the other end while slowly feeding the mollys , but also what’s your Gh ? Corys and mollys are different ends of the hardness scale I believe
