don't know what got into me but i suddenly want a cory tank again..

i will want it to be a 55 gallon and here are the stockings...yes i know..30 cories. have had 6 cories in a ten gallon, no problem, so so i can fit 30 in a 55 too

6 sterbai my fav )
6 trillinautus (SP!!)
6 Panda
6 pepered
2 elegans
4 gold stripe bronze cory (or 4 albino?)
1 pleco (i love them too =)..)


and..top dwelling fish that you can reccomend???

this tank is basically just for cories as you can see so i am looking forward to them breeding, since my sterbai frys ALL died...

Well, if your tank is mainly for Corys, I'd suggest getting a few large peaceful fish...just something to fill in the upper levels of the tank. How about Gouramis? Pearls and Moonlights are very peaceful and beautiful. Three-spot and Gold Gouramis would probably be ok too...they are a bit more aggressive, so I hear, but they should be ok with your Corys.

yea i can get some gouramis for the top and red lined torpedos on the middle...YUMM!!!

NEW PLAN!! i will get adolfois instead of aenus.. and maybe some schwartzis or similies if they weren't so rare here

how many cories do YOU think i can fit in a 55 gallon..see i'm a greddy person

 

[clutterydrawer]

why don't you get some pygmy cories? they're really sweet AND they spend quite a bit of time mid-top water.

Edit: I've just remembered I read they don't do so well in deep water so maybe not depends how deep the tank it i guess

Gouramis would be a great addition to an all-cory tank

 

[fishdudein]

I agree with the gouramis. Also angels, rams, apistos, maybe some rainbows, or a school of tetras, how about neons or pristellas?
