The Corydoras need to stay in a school of at least 6, so or 6 Albino or 6 Emerald Green Corydoras. http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.geocities.com/s8xi5heh/classic_blue.html http://groups.yahoo.com/group/buzaqq/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com |

It's also usually recommended not to keep bettas with gouramis but I'm not sure if that applies to females.

The greater number of fish will reduce the natural aggression within the angelfish. A side benefit is that you may have a pair develop from the group. __________ "To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research." researched from Steven Wright |
