Hi there, can you maybe tell us a bit more about your tank? How big is it? How long has it been set up? Any other fish in it?
I know that cories do best ina group of at least 5. Also, what kind of plec are you going to get? a common plec will get very big, they can reach 12" or more so you need a very big tank for them...
