I love albino aeneus corys - what is the highest temps they can tolerate?
but I guess no good at high temps with discus.

so which corys can live with discus at say 84-86?

& BN plecos can also? but how about baby BN's?

thx
 
Peppered Cories.
 
albino aeneus corys do fine at discus temps also sterbai like was mentioned but not all corys tolerate the heat as well some will live for awhile but the heat shortens there life span

well - I hope albino's will not have shorten life spans with my discus, otherwise, then what's the point of adding them? I will have to check out sterbai's also.

but just to be sure, can albino's stand the higher temps or will they live for awhile & then start to die off.

thx
 
Corydoras sterbai in my experience. Corydoras paleatus prefer cooler temperature than the bracket of 84-86 degrees.

Bristlenose plecos will work just fine.
 
I kept sterbai and aeneus with my discus at 86 with no issues so far. I much prefer the sterbai. Bristlenose plecos are a good choice as well. Also, amano shrimp are wonderful with discus.
 
it seem that the longer i'm on this site the more retarded questions get
corys at 86f ? yes
bristle nose at 86f ? yes
baby bristle nose? yes babys too
sounde like questions of a 12 year old
