do they require special food? i just feed my pleco algae wafers.. i know catfish are bottom feeders, so is that good enough???

also would a ten gallon tank be sufficient home for six or so????

you are about to get bombarded with lots of messages with how great they are...(im trying to hold my self back)
like said need atleast six to get the full cory affect and yep the are community fish
the rest of you quessies really depend on exact species try planetcatfish.com for all species listing commonly avaible.
only limits you would have is tank size as some corys get upto 3 inches and when you get 6 or so of them can be a strain on bioload
hope i helped some

Corydoras are great fish & need to stay in groups of at least 6, but the more you have, the merrier they'll be. Here is a link with all the Corydoras listed & very usefull information about them :-
