I am considering adding six corys to my new 15 gallon aquarium. I know they perfer to be in groups. Do they all have to be the same species or can i get diffrent species and still keep them healthy

Cories are visual schoolers. They must all be the same type. Some people will say that you can mix them up, but I strongly recommend getting 6 or more of just one type.They are less stressed and a lot more happier this way. Makes them fun to watch too, especially if we're talkin' pandas. G/L

I concur. Cories seem to be the happiest when they are kept in groups of the same species. What type of cory do you have in mind?
