Peppered Cory. Bit of a long one

[fishywishywowoo]

I have 3 peppered cories. All got at same time. 1 is bigger than other 2. Recently the smaller 2 chase the bigger one and they seem to nuzzle each other. Is this mating or playing or fighting?

The larger one is most likely a female & the smaller ones make, it sounds like spawning behaviour if the males are chasing the female

What size is the tank?

I can't say I have ever seen corydora fight. I would say breeding behavior based off the pictures.

Your next water change, make the new water slightly colder. This induces spawning behavior because it mimics the rainy seasons for them.

Is that granite? It's beautiful! I'm not of much help just browsing.
