Which is better?

[Eoibio]

Nope kuhlies dont clean. I think dwarf chain loaches would be a better choice then cories.

i'm not looking for cleaning, just the excess fodd to be eaten. (bottomfeeders)

 

[arherp]

FE, why are you saying that? Would you care to give some information to support that statement? (Why I should do that?)

2 cories will more than likely be shy. if you want to see them and make them happy cories then a small group of 3 is minimum but 4+ ideal if they will fit in. I would stay away from pygmy cories cos of the ID shark until he goes to his next tank. pepper cories get bigger than pygmies but smaller than bronze/albino cories, as do pandas.

Sorry man,just trying to rile you up.Dont sweat it.

How could the ID eat them? There are all sizes of guppies that live in his tank that he never even attempts to catch.

I use corys in all my tanks and they are non-stop scavengers

final answer: cories

IMO, khulis make a great addition when you add 5 or more. In a ten gallon, you 'could' fit 5 in there. Cory's really should be in groups, 5-6. They are social, and tend not to be as happy if there are only 2 in a tank. Just remember, your id IS capable of eating them. Not saying it will happen, but it could.

Ok, lol. I'm not really sure which I will pick. Maybe just set up a 40 gallon and break down the ten, since they are social, they will need more room.
