Albino Cory cats

Great! Lots of people have told me to get cories.

OK, I went and looked, and they also have normal cories. (I like the albinos better, though) What is an adequate number of them to form a good school? And do I need to specifically feed them anything or do they just find food themselves?

I have four albino cory cats and I love them. They are pretty good at keeping the bottom clean. Also have a galaxy pleco but he doesn't seem to do much but look awesome

4 threads merged together. Let's try and keep all ideas and suggestions in the one place so everyone can keep track.

6 is good. Use sinking food for them, shrimp pellets are a favorite.

Great! Those will be fun to have...

Alright, After many mind changes, I might have come up with a decent plan:
10 Zebra Danios
7 Black Skirt Tetras
1 Swordtail
6 corys

I think this might work, just getting your opinion as it might be overstocked...
