Quick Question

[BaylorPerez]

As i have 2 Adult Albino corys(tinted pink), would adding juveniles be a bad idea? or would it be a good idea? as my fish store actually had some juveniles that are as lively as ever and i would think they would make a good addition to my blackskirt tetra/cory/assassin snail tank?

Corydoras are very peaceful; you can add any size and age to a shoal and they'll be best buddies in five minutes

i know ive asked this before, but with the cory "teens" is their any special needs for them? i know if they are "fry" they need to be seperated and fed differently but do they need anything food wise?

 

[eaglesaquarium]

No. Treat them the same as the adults.

 

[BaylorPerez]

ah alright, well ill be sure to get my 2 adults some kids then XD

Corys are the honest, upright, citizens of the aquarium. They bother no one, eat no one, destroy nothing. They potter around on the bottom of the tank minding their own business and while all-hell can break loose around them they remain calm in a crisis. Any new cory's are welcomed immediately, both large and small. They are gregarious enough to rival Clown loaches and thrive while those said mad-cap stripy beasts do what they do (race around a lot).
 
I know all this because I have always had cory's and always had Clown loaches.

If people were more like Cory's the world would be a better place -- unfortunately, the world is more like being full of pirhana's or Ghost Knife fish.

Well... newly planted rooted plants often get uprooted by their snuffling around.  But you are correct... nicest little fish there are.

They do too, I have 5 and they are crazy and fun. I cant put my hand in the tank without the clowns being all over it trying to squeeze between my fingers.

Also in my other post (got a 55Gal today) i asked which was better to get, loaches or corys ( i was wanting both honestly)

 

[Flubberlump]

I have to agree with everyone else. Corys are the most peaceful fish I've ever kept and they are best buddies as fluttermoth said. It's not unusual to see them in a big pile all leaning on top of each other. I love them.
