its best to keep groups of atleast 4 of each type up pygmy corys are so small they might gett over compeated for food i think it would be best to get 6 to go in the 6g if you can so theres no other bottom dwellers to out compete them for food.

Well, I've decided to only pick up a betta tomorrow (if there is any!) but I'll continue to keep an eye out for the pygmy cory's until something else comes along.

I'm home with a red VT betta. Smile

He looked a bit lethargic in the pet shop. An employee was removing a few fish from the tank as I walked in. I know I probably shouldn't have taken him and that there will no doubt be problems (again) but I just couldn't leave him.
I done the whole floating the bag for 15, adding in some tank water for 15 etc. and now he's happily swimming about. He looks perkier already. I hope he lasts. I'm kinda in love already.
