victa_fish,

Time to change your LFS!

]:| What are they talking about ]:|
it makes no difference to them if their in a group or not


If you follow any post here that is concerned with cories, nobody ever had that opinion.

The more cories you have, the more comfortable and safe they will feel. They will play and flit around much more in a large group than in a small group or a single.

you definately need more than 2 or 4 corries

How large is the tank? I'd recommend as many as you can safely and healthly have in the tank...

When my 125 is back in shape how it should be, i'll easily have over 40 corries in the tank of 7 species, and they swim and school together...they act like fools, and keep me laughing all the time...definately need more than 2
