	plecos and corys?
LMuha Mega Fish Posts: 908 Kudos: 1144 Votes: 183 Registered: 17-Mar-2003	I have seven emerald corys in quarantine at the moment, awaiting transfer into my 55. Can they co-exist with a dwarf pleco (the kind that only grows to about 4 or 5 inches)? I don't have one in that tank at the moment, but I'm thinking about it, since algae is a perennial problem around here.

They move right next to him picking the sand even right under his tail and he rarely seems to care about it. So I guess yours should do fine with cories as well
