Feeding time in the Rasbora / Pygmy Cory tank.

It's baby brine shrimp today.

Some look a little pale because I only got them 2 weeks ago and they're still not mature.

Originally, when setting up the 30 gallon tank, we got three tiny little threadlike Kuhli loaches. Two darker (above) and one lighter in colour. They are now big Chunkus Wyrms and thriving.

Just before the holiday we got a tiny, threadlike singleton Kuhli loach, rescued from being an "only loach" in a bare tank (no hidey spots.) He had buried himself in the group of Pygmy corys that were freaking out in the back of the tank as well. (Kuhli loaches need friends and hidey places.)

We brought them all home, Pygmy corys and tiny loach. I was concerned for the tiny thread who promptly disappeared into the vegetation in the tank. We did not see him for three weeks.

However, he has resurfaced!

And he is at least four times larger than when he was last seen diving into the foliage! How did he survive the Guppy Threat?

His protector, Wyatt, Bestest Betta in the Fishiverse.

Wyatt has been stuffing loach wafers under the Spiderwood, and chasing off the Guppies when they get obnoxious. And now that Tiniest Loach is starting to explore more of the tank, his bodyguard is never far from his side.

(Last photo shows Wyatt warning off a Guppy while Tiniest Loach peeks out from under the Spiderwood.)

With one community tank ready for restocking and another in the works I am about to come upon an extremely important aquarium decision....

Can you keep different Cory Catfish species together in one tank?

Introduction

Cory catfish, often referred to as "Corydoras," are a popular choice among aquarium enthusiasts for their charming personalities and unique appearance. These peaceful bottom-dwellers are known for their endearing behavior and are perfect for community tanks. However, when it comes to keeping different cory catfish species together in one tank, there are some important considerations to keep in mind. In this article, we will explore the various Cory catfish types and discuss the feasibility of keeping them together harmoniously in a single tank.

Understanding Cory Catfish Types

Before diving into the compatibility of different cory catfish species, it's essential to familiarize ourselves with the various types that exist within this group. Corydoras is a diverse genus, with over 170 recognized species. Each species has its own unique characteristics, including size, coloration, and behavior. Here are a few popular cory catfish types:

Corydoras aeneus (Bronze Cory)

Corydoras paleatus (Peppered Cory)

Corydoras sterbai (Sterba's Cory)

Corydoras panda (Panda Cory)

Corydoras habrosus (Salt and Pepper Cory)

Corydoras julii (Julii Cory)

Corydoras pygmaeus (Pygmy Cory)

Compatibility Considerations

While cory catfish are generally peaceful and sociable, it's important to consider a few factors when contemplating keeping different cory catfish species together in a single tank:

Tank Size: Cory catfish appreciate space to explore, and the size of your tank plays a crucial role in their compatibility. A larger tank allows for more fish and reduces the chances of territorial disputes.

Similar Water Parameters: Different cory catfish species may have varying preferences for water parameters like temperature, pH, and hardness. It's crucial to choose species that share similar requirements to ensure they thrive together.

Aggression Levels: Although cory catfish are typically non-aggressive, there can be instances of territorial behavior or competition for food. Mixing species with vastly different sizes or temperaments may lead to issues.

Group Size: Cory catfish are social creatures and thrive in groups. When mixing species, ensure that you have an adequate number of each type to prevent isolation or stress.

Compatibility with Tankmates: Consider the other fish species in your tank as well. Some species may be more compatible with certain cory catfish types than others. Avoid keeping aggressive or predatory fish with your cory catfish.

Potential Combinations

While it's generally recommended to keep cory catfish of the same species together, there are some combinations that can work successfully if you follow the compatibility guidelines:

Corydoras aeneus and Corydoras paleatus: These two species are relatively similar in size and temperament, making them a suitable pairing for a community tank. Ensure the tank is appropriately sized and provides plenty of hiding spots.

Corydoras panda and Corydoras habrosus: Both species are small and peaceful, making them great choices for a peaceful community tank with other small, non-aggressive fish.

Corydoras sterbai and Corydoras julii: These species have similar care requirements and can coexist peacefully. Ensure your tank is large enough and provide plenty of hiding places.

Corydoras pygmaeus and Corydoras habrosus: These tiny cory catfish types are excellent choices for small tanks. Their small size and peaceful nature make them ideal for micro-sized community setups.

Conclusion

While mixing different Cory catfish types species in one tank can be possible, it's essential to consider various factors to ensure a harmonious coexistence. Tank size, water parameters, aggression levels, group size, and compatibility with tankmates all play vital roles in determining the success of such a setup.

It's crucial to research the specific requirements of each cory catfish type you intend to keep and plan your tank accordingly. Always prioritize the well-being of your fish by providing appropriate hiding spots, maintaining stable water conditions, and monitoring their behavior closely. By taking these precautions, you can create a thriving and visually captivating community tank featuring a variety of cory catfish species.

"Thank you for your most sage advice, oh Great and All Knowing Julii!"

"I have come to seek the wisdom of the Great and Powerful Julii!"

"Oh Great Julii, I, too, have come to seek your Guidance!"

"I have come to seek the wisdom of the Great Julii!"

(Not bad, so far today I have received 5 bloodworm payments.)

"Have you come to seek my Great Wisdom as well?"

"No, FALSE Julii, I have NOT. I am here to tell you to stop scamming the Little Ones or I will return with some Real Wisdom for you!"

"It's ok, you can come out now, the False Julii has been shut down and we all get our bloodworms back!"
