Cory cats

[bkiggy]

So just got albino cory, and 2 striped cory, they swim all over the place and my pictus cat doesn't seem to like them. Will they eventually get along? Everyone chases each other around tank. Are they fighting?

One of the panda Cory had a heart attack

Something killed my other Cory. Had his tail bit off

What else is in your tank?

 

[bkiggy]

African Butterfly , Pictus Cat, Albino Cory and upside down catfish , oh and ghost shrimp

 

[bkiggy]

The Albino Cory and Pictus cat seem to be better together

I was wondering if it was your pictus? As I know some can snack on cories, hopefully someone else will chime in.

What size is the tank? Maybe if it there isn't enough surface area at the bottom the pictus is fighting for territory?

- can I add a German blue ram?

Not with that many deaths so quickly. Rams are sensitive fish to water quality. It's when there's a change in the water parameters. Suprisingly out of all my fish about 5 died when I went on holiday my rams survived. Give it a week and then if you still feel you want one do some research and looking into getting one.
