Dwarf corys in a 2 gallon?

[JenNewbie]

I need to bring in 2 molly frys and a pleco to the LFS and I was wondering about trading them for dwarf corys for my new betta tank. It's a 2 gallon Eclipse. Is that too small for 2 dwarf corys to be happy in? If so, recommendations for a good bottom feeder? Should I just stick with ghost shrimp?

That's a tricky one...I would say 2 dwarf cories max..and you would be at your stocking limit for the tank - even over it some...as long as you keep up with the maintenance, you should be fine.

Ghost shrimp work with some bettas - others eat the shrimp.

If you don't go with the corrys, I would go with a couple of ottos...make sure to suplement their diet with veggies if there is no algae in the tank

No cories

I, personally, would not put those two dwarf cories in a 2 gallon tank. I would give them more space than that. But that is just me.
