Well my tank has been cycled for awhile now and I've been adding 1-2 fish per week. I'm now up to 5 spotted cory's and 1 Betta.
My light is kind of bright in my tank so I thought I'd get the Cory's something to hide in - so I went to walmart and got this big tree trunk thing with nice big holes in it.
The problem is...since I've gotten it the Cory's are ALWAYS in there. Whether the light is on or off, they just chill in there. I'm kind of disappointed b/c I wanted the Cory's to have a schooling type of fish so there was always activity in the tank.
By the way, my light is off a lot b/c they start squirming a bit when I turn it on and I feel as if I'm blinding them lol...should I be doing that?
Also, is it important to have Cory's in groups of even numbers so they can "buddy up" or is 5 ok?
