	10 gallon stocking, too many bottom feeders?
Gurlie Small Fry Posts: 6 Kudos: 10 Votes: 0 Registered: 06-Jul-2004	Would it be okay to have 3 or 4 panda corydoras in a 10 gallon tank with a single male betta? Is it too heavy on the bottom feeders??? My betta eats floating pellets so I would have to feed bottom tablets. I also try to give my betta frozen brine and I can easily put in more for the corys.
