well I didn't keep them together, but I learned the lesson(not as much as the goldfish:( ), but I was at a fish store and they had some fancy goldfish and some corys in the same tank. I've never liked keeping goldfish and tropicals together, but this made me gasp, goldfish try to fit everything into their mouth. when it's a jeuvenile cory, this isn't a good thing.
the cory had it's dorsal fin spine sticking out the top of the goldfishes head. so the goldfish learned his leason, in fact, he'll probably starve to death:irked:.
