Hi Kaz and Welcome :D
I have some Peppered corys too and yup, they sure are characters. I like the winks. No babies from them yet but they do a good job babysitting the fry from my other corys - I think the babies are too small for the Peppered to figure out that they're a different species. It looks like you have corys and otos in some smallish size groups in your 64 and 65 litre - you may want to consider making those groups a single little shoal to really get some wonderful group behaviors. Maybe even some oto babies? :beardy: I also have glowlight tetras - very cool looking fish, puts fireflies to shame really.

Would love to see some pictures of your tanks if you get the time - they sound beautiful! Post them in Tank Talk, there' s some very nice tank shots there at the moment. Lots of oto and cory homes, good for inspiration for the rest of us :thumbsup:
Cheers
