Stocking Ideas?

[SergeantSlurp]

Hi just after some ideas as to wich fish to stock my juwel korall 60 with (55l) I would like a group of cories for definite.

Is your water hard or soft and what are the dimensions of the tank?

 

[SergeantSlurp]

Reasonably hard and 61x30x38cm

well you cant have larger cories thats for sure.

If your water is on the hard side, I would look at either Corydoras hastatus or C. panda; most other cories of a suitable size for your tank (C. pygmaeus and C. habrosus) prefer it softer. The hastatus would be the best choice; pandas get that bit bigger.

Then you could have; dwarf neon rainbows, Celebes rainbows, Celestial pearl danios, Endlers or guppies, glowlight danios, dwarf emerald rasboras; there'll be others.

Try a biotope mimicry community maybe...
6 Corydoras hastatus
6 Aphyocharx nattereri
 
These tetra have a bit of a nippy reputation in communities , but they see the catfish as bulkier versions of themselves, so leave them be.

I second the 6 of cory sp. and 6 of smaller tetra sp. idea.
