Aquarium Advice Freak
This subject has probably been discussed at length, but I want to set up a 20 gallon tank with mixed corydoras and a single male betta. AqAdvisor says it isn't advisable but . . . .
So, what are the chances for problems? Do I introduce the corys first then betta or other way around? I have never had a betta. My first thought was a 10 gallon betta only tank, but since I have an extra 20 and want to try a sand bottom tank for corys, I was hoping to combine them. Speak up all you experts! Also, if it is OK; how many corys are acceptable in a 20 high? I was thinking of four albinos that I already have and maybe another 8 of two different species.
