Advice on plants and sand?

HI!

I hope this is the right place... if not, my apologies. I've done quite a bit of reading, but just wanted a little more input from people who know what they're doing.

I haven't had my own tank for very long, and am still doing my best to learn how to keep my fish their happiest and healthiest ...

Re: I'm a brown/gold spotted cory!

Aww, congrats! I'm hoping for the same thing. They're really beautiful fish. Mine seems to be awfully shy-- while my other cories are buzzing around the bottom of the tank doing cory things, she hides in one of the logs and looks menacing. I already adore her. :D

Anyway, good luck!

I'm a brown/gold spotted cory!

I found this guy (gal?) yesterday at the pet store, the only one of his kind in a tank with about a dozen aneaus... I asked the person who worked there if he knew what species this was, and he said, "I don't know... it's some kind of cory cat. You can have it for $5.99."

I combed trough the Cat ...

Re: Caring for a chewed-up cory.

I'm probably being a little neurotic here, but I'm worried that my tail-less buddy isn't getting enough to eat.

I tried to release him from the breeding net as suggested, but he's not a very strong swimmer and got stuck to the part of the filter that sucks in the water. So, he's back in the ...

Re: Caring for a chewed-up cory.

None of his injuries seem to be recent or fungus-y, but I'll definitely keep an eye on him. I know that cories are social fish... Will he be particularly unhappy if he's kept separate from the others? The other fish are still intrigued by the breeding net and keep poking at it so he can still see ...

Caring for a chewed-up cory.

I was meandering around the pet store yesterday, and noticed that one of the albino corydoras anneus had nearly nothing left of his tail fins, because something nibbled them off. I felt bad for the poor little guy and figured that no one else would buy him, so I did. He appears to be healthy ...
