Just purchased 5 peppered corys a few days ago. It's a 55 gallon that's heavily planted and has large piece of driftwood. I didn't feed them the first day. Tried to feed them the next couple days in the morning and they acted like they didn't want to eat, kinda nibbled on the wafer and went into hiding in the driftwood, did not know they love driftwood like that. Decided to feed at night and they seemed to prefer to eat then. Did the same the next day and same results, just seem to think maybe this specie prefers night feeding, because I have 9 albinos in my other 55 and they eat at anytime of the day and seem much more playful than the peppered I just got. I know they may just be settling into new surroundings but my albinos settled immediately. So just wondering if the peppered variety are a little more shy and a little more nocturnal acting?
