I should just start a new thread because this one is so old, but I have yet another question about the cories. If I have just two, what would be the smallest tank you'd recommend if it was only them, and possibly a third cory or a betta? I realized moving a 10g back and forth each semester and...

If I was going to get an algae eater I was going to go with an otto, but I don't think one would have a big enough effect. I might as well just scrub the tank walls myself. Rather than a small school of tetras I was thinking of a male betta with about 3-5 small cories. I saw an aquarium with...

Some of you've already met me, I was the one with fifty billion questions in the freshwater area. I've been clicking around the site and was obviously impressed enough to join. I joined mostly to get help and support with my to-be 10g freshwater aquarium. It sounds small enough that an idiot...

so I lied, got a few more questions. 1.) Should I get an algae eater? I've heard that they can cause more waste than they clean. If I should, what kind is best. If not, what's the best way to maintain the tanks cleanliness? 2.) I want to stay away from campy looking decorations, I want it to...

Thanks everyone. I think I have my tank mostly planned out now. Now it's all depending on what I can afford.

Alright, just one last question and I think that I'm done. I've been looking at different tetras, and it seems that they can be fin nippers. Any idea that this might be a problem to the cories?

I've gotten mixed messages about the cories. Some people are saying I can house several in a 10g, and others saying I can't have any. When you say that I could house several of the albinos, do you know the exact species for that? Thanks for all the info so far.

I'll actually move this, I believe it's not sorted so well.

I'm going off to college soon and am planning on getting a 10g tank, since it's the only pet I'm allowed and I'm so used to having animals to look after. I have a few questions, but the most important would be what kinds of fish. I'm pretty set on getting a few Albino Cory Cats, but I want to...
