Hey all~

juzz wanna ask...i keep 2 upside down catfishes with 3 corydoras caudimaculatus. However, i don't seem to see them around much at all.

I don't even know if they're feeding, but whenever i go check in on them, the food's gone, or maybe they juzz pushed it somewhere where i couldn't see.

Question is, how mnay of them in a group?? should i get more?

Get more. About 4-6, the size of the tank willing.

I would lower the tone of your lighting too we had over a dozen in a tank and they only show themselves with lights off and at feeding time. A very reclusive fish but as with most shoalers safety is in numbers.

lighting isn't very strong. Will probably get 2-3 more. Thanks for the replies guys
