I got six of them today and they've been chasing each other non stop all over the place. They're even more hyperactive than my glofish danios. This is not what I expected. I had everything planned out too, a couple of Dwarf Gouramis would swim gracefully near the top of the tank, the glofish and neon tetras would float around the middle section, and the cories would be chilling and relaxing on the bottom. But right now I have these white bodies zapping around the tank, crashing into each other like a bunch of kids on sugar high. :banghead: But they're really cute though. :oops:
 
Mine is exactly the same, totally thinks he's a mid-level fish and likes to play with the bigger boys lol.
 
that's perfectly normal behaviour for Albino cories! :)

I have 6 of them in a 40 gallon.
They are very active and playful and constantly moving. Zooming around the tank. Swimming Up and down the sides.
Playing in the bubbles wall.

This means they are happy :)

They are definitely bottom dwellers. They eat from the bottom of the tank.
