Although you could get three of them if you wanted to, it would be best for the corys, and look better, if you just got three more bandits. I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

Danios and cories do best in groups of six or more, so you should add a danio and three more bandit cories (corydoras metae). Your cories will be happier and more active if you add more of the same species, instead of a different kind. It is a debated topic, but I believe that cories shoal by sight, and hang out exclusively with their own kind. They will intermix if there is no choice, but they prefer their own kind. And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

It could be another common name for peppered cories or something, you've got me interested! Like Natalie and Nick already said, you could do it but cories (and danios) like schools, of at least 6. They are much lessed stressed and happier (and more entertaining!) when kept this way. -Formerly known as the Ferretfish
