firefish Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 8 in total. Very cool watching them in the tank as the only other corys i've had were bronze cories. They're still small about 3cm. And its a pity this photo isn't focused: They're sitting on the gravel that gets rearranged by the BN (who is behind them in the pic) and the kribs who i've been watching taking mouthfuls of gravel & putting the gravel on the top of the mound. These are in a tank i don't seem to talk about much. they're with kribs, black phantom tetras, a BN and a red tailed shark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zev Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 Nice fish - It is always a toss up for me - pygmaeus or sterbai (and not the albino ones, either!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefish Posted April 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 I'm enjoying watching them, but they are mainly staying at the back. Except when my shark decides I need to see them closer he herds them (and other fish) up like it is a game, but stops quite quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 My sterbais tend to stay under cover until the evenings when the place quietens down and then they are out in groups playing around and scooting around the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 my tank is in limbo in the garage at the moment and the light is off - every time I'm down there I see the cories playing the in current, they are definitely more active in lower light levels.

Simian Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Not going to happen, decided I can't trust them with the bigger fish..... Yeah those pectoral fin spines are wicked and sharp, perfect for sticking in a throat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
