Newbie And Reference Recommendations

[Jimvoss]

Hello everyone,
My name is Jim Voss and I am a newbie. It's refreshing to be the new kid on the block. After 25 years of corporate life, I have returned to my first love, tropical fish, invertebrates, eco systems and related fauna.
I am presently researching sites for reference material of corydoras catfish and plecostomus. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

cory's are best in schools 6 or more and can be kept with other species, they are peaceful and can be kept
with other small to medium fish .

Welcome to the forum

Planet Catfish is generally pretty good, www.planetcatfish.com , Fishbase (www.fishbase.com) has a, to put it lightly, extensive list of species by common or scientific name, although some of the info can be a bit off.
