So it's not good to keep them with fish with long flowing fins. http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com

I traded them for a school of 6 black skirt tetras and have been much happier - they're much more outgoing. Mine also were not nippy at all except with themselves...and they did no fin damage to each other. They were in a 33 gallon tank with L. dorsigera, 3 sunburst platys, and a couple of plecos. Eric
