Most, if not all corydora catfish, are a dwarf species, staying under 4"...
the julii http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog...dora/378_f.php
very nice fish....very social, as most corys are... yes, they LOVE to be
with others, depending on the size of the tank... if you can handle 3 of
them, go for it.... All corydoras love shrimp pellets, but a couple pellets
can feed 2 or 3 pretty easy... plus, being a bottom feeder, they can clean
up uneaten food from others... IF it reaches the bottom...

okay, well... i have a 32 gallon tank with 2 swortails, 3 guppies, and
6 tetras (3 goldskirt, 3 long finned serpae). i want to do so much
with my tank but it's probably not big enough. i'd like to get 2
african dwarf frogs, 3 of those julii corys, and then a couple bigger
"centerpeice" fish. would all of that be a little excessive?? not to
mention my livebearers are all males, should i add females?? i don't
want any fry though, that's why i got all males, but someone mentioned
in another thread that i should get females. i don't know what to do!
and mr. redforeman, i know you can help me. haha, you are going to
become my personal aquarium guy...that is, if you don't mind. and,
that is, if you are a guy...if not then you can be my personal
aquarium fish girl. haha although i'm pretty sure you're a guy..
okay, i'm blabbing now.

If it were me, I'd trade the 2 of the guppy males, and get 3 corys and maybe
1 angel.... but then again, I've not had angels before and they've been on
my mind lately...

i'm not sure if any of the stores around here will trade fish or not.
not to mention, sonny jr., my oldest guppy barely has a tail left and
is constipated again! i GUESS i could trade in victor and darien
although i'm already a little attached. haha! maybe i'll go the the
LFS tomorrow and see what they can do for me...

OH, i was looking through this one book i have on fishies, and there's
this rainbow fish i thought would be a good "centerpeice" fish. it
even said so in the book. i was going to bring the book to work with
me today so i would remember and post the name of it in here but i
forgot...!

ok thanks for the suggestions mr. redforeman!

ah-ha, i remember now... a Boeseman rainbowfish i'm pretty sure.

okay, so i went out today and bought 3 of those julei corys. they
seem happy so far! and it sounds as if the LFS does trade fish. so
once i decide on a "centerpeice" fish, i'll probably have to trade a
couple of fish...

i went looking for one of those rainbowfish and....out of the 3 stores
i went to, no one had them! although petsmart did have australian
rainbowfish, which were quite pretty. i'd really love a colorful
cichlid, would 1 of those be happy in my tank do you think?? i'm
worried because my other guppies fins are getting nipped at now, and i
don't know what TO DOOOOOOO!!

Austrailian are pretty plain compared to the bosemani... usually the
bosemani are more expensive, which is why alot of LFS won't carry them...
it's usually the upper classed LFS that will stock them... Keep up your
search, if you want, look online, but you'll pay more for that too... in my
area, there is one LFS that carries them, they're $14.99 each... as
juveniles

Honestly, I'd opt NOT to get a cichlid if your partial to your guppies...
they will become harassed..
