I recently remodeled my 10 gal from a gravel bottom, plastic plant tank into a sandy bottom and real plants.
It's currently stocked with:
3x peppered corydoras
I put my (egg laying) mystery snail in that tank for a couple of weeks because the water level is a lot higher in the 10G than it is in the one the MS is normally housed in, and I was going on a spring break vacation and I didn't want my pet-sitter to have to deal with snail eggs.. And my cories were completely terrified of it. To the point where they wouldn't come out of the rock arch in the corner of the tank. I put the snail in another one of my tanks and now I'm thinking about permanent stocking for the tank.
Originally I was going to go with
3x peppered cories
3x jullii cories
and 5x serpae tetras
But now I think that wouldn't be sufficient since I've got about 4" of substrate in the tank (UGFs and sand don't mix).. And I think I'd rather go with 6 peppered corydoras rather than introducing a new species, since they seem to be rather shy.
so stocking ideas please!
6x Peppered Corydoras
&
One or two top swimmers. I was thinking maybe a honey or some other kind of dwarf gourami but what do you guys think?
I'm open to any fish as long as they're mid-top swimmers.
Thanks!
