I have another question then, if this fish is indeed a Hypancistrus inspector then is it possible that it would eat a dead fish if it was laying at the bottom? I have some tetras and 2 have vanished. The only other fish in the tank are cory's and i know they could have had nothing to do with it. Any ...

I have a 10 gallon tank with 3 ...

Thanks alot for the advice. Ever since i got them i have been wondering if they were Brochis Splendens or Corydoras Aeneus because they seem to have traits of both but after counting the rays, they both have 5 or 6. One of the corys is a very deep jungle green while the other is basically bronze ...
