I have a 54 L tank with 30 Aspidoras pauciradiatus (3 cm fish). This i quite suitable, i think (There are no other inhibitants than these).

I once had a group of 15 C. haraldschultzi in the same tank. I found that to be a little crowded, but it worked.

I say if the tank only is to contain corys on approx 6 cm, 10-15 would be my choise, depending on temperament and filtration.
