Your poll choices aren't very clear. Yes or no to what? Corys, plecs or both?

yup
and there's plecs and plecs.
a nice little pleco such as Panaquolus maccus or something will fit perfectly in any Corydoras tank, there's tons and tons of small L-numbers, Rhineloricaria's, farlowella's, Oto's; you name it; all of whom are perfectly suited for a 100 L together with a group of Corys.....

So where's the rub?

A: Well, Cartman doesn't exist in real life, but if he did he'd be two feet tall.

Have you seen a school of about 15 c. reticulatus swimming in a tank? Believe me, it is absolutely breath-taking! Corys and pl*cos actually make nice tank mates. A balanced mix of the two could work for you.
