Awesome list can I keep a cory dora(s) in my 55 gallon with 5 fancy goldfish and a bristlenose pleco
Aquarium Co-Op I bought my pandas and peppered corydoras from here thanks to your recommendation a while ago and they came in healthy and have been amazing additions. Thanks for the heads up!
Hey, how many Panda Corys would you recommend in 10g (with just one betta) tank?
How can i buy one of your guppys fish bc i got 4 males and not enough female
Cory is there any way that I could order live fish from your store
Rushed out of the house to pick up 5 more Corys đ. Iâm so sorry my lone Cory. I got you buddy!
Omg my heart.
I too have a lonely cory my local pet stores have not had any recently
You're a good person. Just make sure they have enough space to romp and play
Update this past sat I was able to get a lil buddy now I have two false Julie's !!
Buddy system for everybody!!!
Cory talking about Cory cats. The fact that I thought this was so hilarious just shows I really need to get out of the house and I'm losing my mind.
Hang in there guys..lol... We need form a support group. đâ€ïžđđ±đż
I kept thinking how cool and funny itâd be if he changed his middle name to Dora, Iâve been in my house way to long
hahaha we aaaaallllll are duuuude!
It was the "let me know what you are keeping down below" that I locked on to.
Christina, you are fine. I am sure I could have thought the same, regardless of the quarantine.
Corydoras are my favourite fish honestly they're so entertaining to watch and just look adorable
@Vanguard G generation stride Are sterbais as easy to breed as bronze/albino corys?
Eivor The Wolf-Kissed lol am I the only one thay thinks they are so cute when they are eating and picking at the substrate for food?
Same I want some black Venezuelan Cory's but they're so hard to find
I luv their lil whiskersss
Yes! I wasn't expecting them to be so active and fun to watch! I am a new cory momma and they along with bettas are my favorite to watch.
I was gifted 2 panda cory's about a year ago. Wasn't able to get my hands on more because of timing. I literally woke up to 4 babies and in the past two weeks, I now have 10 babies(that I can actually find lol) Didn't even know I had a Male or Female. But they are in a 20 long heavily planted tank. Awesome surprise!
My own experience with Panda Corys, is that they are among the most avowedly social of all the Corys, and as a consequence, a group of 8 is a bare minimum to keep them happy. I had a group of 14 that provided non stop hilarity with their playful antics, because they were in a decent sized group. Also, they are MUCH more sensitive to water conditions and dirty gravel than other Corys, and require scrupulous attention to water changes and gravel suction cleaning to keep them happy. Do that, and they'll not only reward you with their almost mammalian level of cuteness (I liken them to hamsters with fins!) but they'll also start spawning. Mine spawned 110 times in 3 years, so I must have done something right. :)
If you're able to gather together a decent sized group from multiple suppliers (in order to diversify the gene pool), give them fast flowing, well filtered water and regularly suction cleaned gravel, in a planted aquarium with bogwood arches and caves, they'll reward you with their spawning antics. Which last for five hours at a time, and are conducted at warp speed. I used to joke that if I tried emulating their spawning prowess, I'd end up in a jar at the hospital. :D
Apart from the chase antics which they're fond of even when not spawning, they indulge in other acts of hilarity when they're happy. As well as surfing the bubbles from my powerhead, one or two of mine took to sitting on big Amazon Swordplant leaves, swaying in the current, for all the world like underwater versions of budgies on swings.
If you really want to see these fish come alive like nothing else on Earth, devote a suitably large aquarium to a colony of 50 of them. and give them some peaceful midwater companions like Cardinal Tetras. You'll then know why I called my version of this setup the Panda Fun Palace. :D
My pandas spawn if the temperature of the water drops a few degrees. And mine don't eat their babies so several friends now have tanks of their own pandas. Also, you will really enjoy watching them more if you use sand instead of gravel. They suck sand into their mouth and blow it out of their gills.
How amazing
Paleatus Cory's are underestimated I think, they are cheap and they have a really beautiful light blue that shimmers
i got some long fin ones coming in the mail im super excited their one of my fav, hopefully i will be able to get the long fin and some regular fin to breed (i tried to buy 8 but they only had 5 long fin in stock and i had never seen them before so i had to jump on them
They are my favorite Corydoras.. and one of the most resilient (compared to others).
oh wow i found u here lel im still looking around for things about cories
I just bought one and I love himmm
Yes I have two they like follow my betta in the 10 gallon tank with neons. My daughter named them rainbow dash and twilight sparkle đ
I've got salt and pepper Coreys in my 30 gallon tank. Every once in a while I get a little wiggle. Started with 3, turned into 8
Where did you get your salt and pepper cories?
I'm an Emerald Cory guy. Green is my favorite color, so one of my dream tanks is to have nothing but green fish and the Emerald Cory is at the top of that list.
Same my guy! Love the emerald corys
Yes, they would have been on my own top 10 list for sure.
I feel you, with my kubotais and alien bettas and jade shrimp lol
@@tonylogan4092 yeah they look real pretty with ohko, it's like they are painted with the same colors. If I didn't have lasers and venezuelan orange coming they'd stay in that tank, lol.
what other green fish would you have?
I love my Albino Cory Catfish. I got them as bottom feeders to cleanup after my rosy red minnows. They look stunning together with the two different tones of orange and they all play nicely. Such cute and fun fish to watch.
A tank isnt complete to me without a cory group. I started with two (bronze) and they were very skittish, so I did my research and went out and bought six more and they flourished so much. They became playful. My females were chonks! My males were good sized too. They bred like crazy. I still have videos of them freshly hatched and all the way to adult. I closed down my tank because of ill health and ohhh boy do I miss them!
My julis are my favorite in my tank. The best quirky personalities in the tank. A very goofy adorable Cory.
I love panda corys!! Probably my favorite fish!! I actually had a tank where they bred!!
I managed to find true Julii at ONE of my local PetSmarts, here in southern Ontario. At $7.99 each, buying 5 was expensive, but so worth it! They look amazing with my crowntail betta, black skirt tetras, and purple, magenta, blue and ivory mystery snails! And theyâre super wiggly which is adorable and a bonus.
Sounds wonderful! How big is your tank
how big is your tank?
I feel very lucky to live in Vietnam because all the common corydoras sold here only range in price from 1->2 USD including julii, sterbai, green, panda,pygmy, albino , habrosus,...
I know this comment was a while back, but would you mind saying what store it was?
After watching your channel and learning more about my favorite little catfish the Corydoras, (my sons name is Cory also), and I've learned more about the group dynamics of Cory's the more I feel sorry for a Green Corydoras that I found in a little creek in Santa Cruz Calif. While catching Tree Frog tadpoles to raise in an outside Goldfish bowl to teach my kids about them. It had probably been let loose in the creek from someone's aquarium and this creek was in the middle of town, and the only part left running in the open and not underground was a stretch about 100 yards running from under one large street to another. This Cory was very large (compared to what I knew about them at the time) about 3 1/2 to 4 inches long and stood out from the tadpoles as there where no other fish left in this creek. When I was a kid it had Sticklebacks and a very very small Sculpin species that disappeared by the time I was an adult. Santa Cruz is on the North side of the Monterey bay on the central coast and has a very mild Mediterranean climate but can get pretty cool in the winter, at times overnight ice forming on standing waters that didnt have a flow like bird baths and puddles, but this Cory was alive and well in this creek for 3 years that I knew of before I moved and who knows how long it was there before I caught it with my little dip net that day with a bunch of tadpoles!! Poor thing must have been depressed only having company during the early spring to early summer tadpole season, plus to escape from Dragomfly larvae and the big black Diving beetles that have a mean bite, and the little kingfisher I used to see on the telephone wire above the creek catching tadpoles and froglets, probably kept him depressed and terrified!! But by all accounts as long as I lived in that neighborhood he was doing well. I never told anyone about him, and by that time kids weren't bothering to catch "polywogs" like they used to, they had Nintendos and Ataris instead, so he was safer if I never told anyone.
I've always seen the paleatus called "peppered cory" and the habrosus called "salt and pepper" cory. And the julii and false julii are definitely 2 separate species, they are just often mistaken for each other. Shouldn't matter too much which you get unless you accidentally mix them, then they won't group and bond as nicely (they can tell the difference even if you can't!)
When I was a kid I had two paleatus cories and I woke up one morning to find a little baby cory that managed to live long enough to be too big to eat, lol. Watching the parents and their baby really solidified cories as my favorite fishies đ„ș
I don't keep fish anymore, but this video has made me want to get back into it someday. It sounds so fun to just get a dozen cories and watch their behaviors. They're such cute and active fish :)
I bought 15 Corydoras Julii when I set my community tank up 1 year ago. Now I have about 30 (probably more, just those that I can see). I'm loving their pattern and I hope I get many more babies over time. A swarm of like 50 would be awesome! Just seeing them buzz around, sifting sand and being dorky is awesome and corydoras should be part of every community tank. They're also great as cleanup crew in a sense that they lift dirt up and get it sucked into the filter.
I really think corydoras are an under-appreciated fish, no matter which type we're talking about. Across my many many aquariums I have groups of albinos, paleatus, trilineatus, bronze, panda, & habrosus corys.
Right now I have peppered, albino, bronze, pandas, and a new kind that I can't identify. The pet store didn't know. They are light caramel brown on top, white on the bottom, and they have a light black stripe on each side. I have looked at so many pictures and videos and I haven't been able to identify them. I hope someone reading comments will know what mine are.
@@amandawitherspoon3988 the mystery corydora might be a skunk corydora.
@@afewofmycommentsarecringy.8646 I finally learned that it is a type of bronze. Thank you for helping.
I was surprised at how big the schools get in the wild, must be amazing to see in the wild!!
I've got a small school of "Emerald" Cory's and they are so fun to watch! They spend all day playing with each other!
I just had my first successful spawn of panda corys. Looks like I have about 25-30 survivors. All doing good. This is there fourth time they laid eggs all in java moss, but this time I took the whole moss and put it in a breeder box and they all hatched. I think the other times the babies did hatch but where eaten by other tank mates.
My favorite is the Orange Venezuelan Cory.
I love these fish đ đ đ definitely one of my favorites
I love them. Expensive though. ÂŁ18 each
I have 5 of them they are awesome little fish...
I love them too. They are a discovery for me. At first i wasn't sure but when i got to see how funny and interactive they are...i fell for them.
Great video Cory! I always love stopping by to see you. Love learning from your experiences!
My favorite is also sterbais!! I have couple wild caught ones that are absolutely massive. They Very peaceful fish and they love to dig in sand
I got 4 bronze corys and they instantly became my favorite fish these little guys are so entertaining to watch and so much character.
Been keeping fish now for a year and a half and have had albino corys since I started and now also have a school of Julii's. Corys are one of my favorite fish for sure, just super chill fish that love to surf around the bottom, and its alot of fun watching them dig their snouts into the substrate. Great video with some cool ideas!
Thats so cool! Look at all those baby eggsđ I recently fell in love with the corydoras, particularly the panda and albinos. So cute! Thanks again for all your help on the corys, Coryđ I love learning from your videos!
Great video like always đđđ» Corydoras are the one of the best cleanup crew and their all peaceful lol
I love the emerald corydoras. They have so much personality and are not a shy bunch. Love them
This was a big help for me as I venture into a 75 gallon planted aquarium. Cory's are a must for me and I found me favorite. Thanks.
Only recently got some Cory's didn't realise what I was missing, awesome little fish. Will definitely be on my favourite list now
catherine morton yo, same
As always Cory Thnx. So enjoyable, entertaining and saves me so much time as u synthesise your incredible experience. For me u epititomise experience. Its not what happens to u its what u do with what happens to u. Some folks have 1 years experience 30 times over, not u. Just amazing spot on perfect for me. Big thnx
I've been absolutely racking my brain trying to decide which type of cory to get for my 50! I'll probably re-watch this a few times lol they are so awesome
I just got 3 Cory's yesterday as company for my Yo Yo Loach. He is so happy to have these cute little buddies. They are all swimming around together đ
I adore Corydoras. Theyâre just so cute to me. I have a group of Skunk Corydoras. Theyâre mostly silver with a thick black stripe down the full length of their body.
I kept Corydoras and Killifish fifty years ago. Your excellent series rekindles my interest, all enjoyable as ever. Very well done and much appreciated. Thank you.
If you don't mind me asking: do you notice different breeds that weren't available fifty years ago? How have things changed since then?
Hi Curtis; We only had around 5 types reaching Montreal in those days. The bronze and albino anaeus were the two most common, and I think I remember panda, banded and a variety we called 'salt and pepper', possibly Julii or Trilineatus, can't remember. But that was it.
African Chiclids were new to us around 1970, and that's where the energy was. I had no idea so many other corys would enter the hobby. More surprising is how exotics like Archer fish or fresh water Butterfly fish were and are still available. We'd see things like knife fish or lung fish, but thought they'd all be gone soon. Nice to see them still strongly in the hobby, and the availability these days continues to amaze and delight me. Cheers! @@curtis1905
Love, love, love the Panda CoryCats, they are so cute. I have 4 and I can't imagine not having them.
Thanks for the great info
I always wondered when this was going to happen, Cory on the topic of Cories...
Hi Cory, always kept bronze corydoras, I have 4 in a 60 litre tank and are getting on fine, its been well over 30 years since I kept fish and I've recently got back into fish keeping and Corydoras were always one of my favourites, greetings from Ireland by the way.
I love all corys. I have 5 bronze corys and they are incredibly hardy. I have had several heater failures and have moved them to three different tanks and they thrive no matter what. I had them with a betta who made it his special project to annoy them. They did great but it was actually the betta who had to be moved because he was showing signs of stress even though they never bothered him Ever! Theyâre now in a 55 gallon tank with Himalayan catfish and tons of guppies and everyone gets along great. I never get tired of watching their non stop antics.
Thanks to this vid I just placed my third Aqua Huna order in a month! I want all of the Corys! Had to get some more longfin Pandas
I have some corys in my 20 gallon, I love them!
I LOVE all of my cories. They're so freakin cute.
I really enjoy your videos - thank you for sharing your knowledge with everyone! Your CO2 video was especially helpful to me in starting up my own setup.
Great info on Corrys, included my favorits
I've had Albino Corys. They are really amazing and an interesting contribution to your aquarium.
They'd be beautiful with a platinum betta
I really like the Albino (Corydoras Aeneus) Cories. I have 6 fancy guppies and a few snails in a 10 gallon. Do you think 6 Albino's would be ok in a 10 gallon?
@@stephaniesmith5326 no, 20 minimum
I love corydoras! I have a large school of panda corys in my 40 breeder. They are adorable. If you have a school of 40+, you get some cool behaviors.
Matt P they are all over. Itâs probably a bit over the top, but the other fish stock is low. Plus itâs the smaller panda Corys.
Really never knew You could lover never knew
I enjoy how they group together
I absolutely love this channel!
About a year and a half ago, I stumbled upon some Pygmy Corys at a LFS for $.99 ea...I purchased all 7 of them and have not looked back! We have had over 20 of them in a 75g planted community, and hope that they continue breeding!
I have the emerald green corys and really like them right now. I think they would be way more popular if people saw them colored up once they got them home
i started with 5 of them. I now have 19 and 3 of them just dumped a ton of eggs.
I love cory catfish. I have 3 20 gallon tanks with them. I have peppered corys, albino corys, bronze corys, and panda corys.
Hey Cory, you and corydoras are my favourite. You and Raechal O lary are most reliable channels on aquarium fishes
I have hastatus corys. They are my favorite of the dwarf corys. Mine seem to enjoy swimming with my chili rasboras. đ
My local store sells a bunch of corys Iâve never heard of like viriginae, melini, and sodalis, which are the ones that I got. They mostly buy from local breeders so it makes me wonder who has this cool cory collection lol
Just bought Bronze corys. Great color and very active. Love them. They are in with angels in one tank and dwarf flag cichlids in another.
Cory, you are my favourite person on the internet! Thank you so much for all your video's đđœđđœâș
Since I only have room for a 55 gal, I keep only Cory Paleatus in a large group. They even have bred!!!
I love cories. Iâm currently keeping 6 different types, breeding most of them. My two favourites are green lasers and adolfio, but so far the adolfio have not spawned
I love adolfi!
I love Corys too!!! Gotta have some in every aquarium I've ever had. They're so fun to watch. C. julii is my favorite. Love the dots & the big spot on the tail. Panda Corys are probably my second-favorite.
We have bronze cory's in our planted 55 gallon with our female guppies. They love it! The beginning of June they were breeding again, but this time I took some eggs & put them in a 10 gallon. We now have 31 babies growing out in our planted 40 breeder. These are one of my favorite fish to sit and watch. đ
WAIT, SO IâM NOT THE ONLY PERSON FREAKED OUT BY ALBINO ANIMALS! HAHA! ITS THE EYES MAN, THEY STARE INTO MY SOUL
đ đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł I love them! I currently have an albino pleco. First pet as a child was an albino bird so maybe that is when my heart went soft for albino animals
I almost always end up with some type of cory at the bottom, some type of tetra in the mid range, and then one center peice fish
Currently a german blue ram cichlid, ember tetras, and juli cory!
I just started keeping paleatus and albino's each having their own groups. Absolutely love them and they get along swimmingly with the rescued Fantail Goldfish.
Thank for the info. I can't get enough of the sterbi, every GCCA swap meet I usually pick up 5 or 6. I also have a big crew of paleatus, and a medium crew of metae, crazy mix but I love it.
Got some pygmaeus coming my way this week. I'd like to try the green or orange laser corys at some point.
I love corydoras they're so cute and "durpy" looking.
I just got my self 7 salt& pepper one today
Cory catfish are my favorite fish
I watched this video a year ago when I didnât have a tank big enough to really keep Corys now a year later watching it again to help me decide what Corys I want to get for my new tank thatâs finally large enough!!!
Cory gang, Cory gang, Cory gang..đ shout out to my buddy at "fish for thought"â€ïžâ€ïžthanks for a great video on my favorite little fish. sooooo...I went to "bigboxco" yesterday and there were 3 albino corys... Yes I brought them home . They were essential đđ€đđ now I just got to find a couple more đđâïžâ€ïž much love to you Cory and aquarium co-op gang from my family to yours..â€ïžđđ±đż
The most common in the UK is bronze, albino, and the salt and pepper.
Same in USA
albino also common
Iâve only recently seen the panda corys. Iâve been out of aquariums for a couple years but plan to get back in this summer
Barry, yes, as Dank noted, same in the U.S. Those are what I have in my tanks. Functional, Nice Looking, and Inexpensive, are all good reasons to focus on those.
I like the Sterbai. Itâs so hot in the summer here so low temperature lovers wonât do well
Panda corydoras are such a fab addition to an aquarium! Mine are pretty much the best purchase I've made for my current set up. Very entertaining to watch!
i love my pandas! Iâve got 8 currently and theyâre so sweet and their behavior almost reminds me of a puppy
Me too! They are adorable đ
I dont think the word cory was used enough in this intro ;P
Hey, how many Panda Corys would you recommend in a 10g (with just one betta)?
5 could work, maybe 6.
0. They aren't very temperature compatible, I would get something like pygmy corys. You could probably go with 8 pygmys without issues.
6
Great info, thank you. I'm building up a 20 gallon aquascape centered around corydoras. This info was vital and I'm very excited.
I started this hobby with a 22-long and 5 to 7 Panda Cory's. I have the same 5 to 7 now, 2 years later plus about 6 more. They weathered all my mistakes and this past few months had babies. What a fun fun FUN fish. I watch this particular tank every night after feeding because it is so alive. The babies add a little extra special right now too.
You're the thiccest cory cat of all
Lol
I didn't know "Cory" came in 10 different types of cats....đ€đđ
Thanks man, new to the channel and really enjoying your advice and knowledge on the subject. My wife and I just picked up a new 20gal tank today and are trying to choose carefully and do our research before we buy any fish to start out with. I found I've been getting a bit of a mixed bag as far as advice from our local stores.
I currently have panda, albino, peppered, and green corys. I just love these little guys. They are so adorable.
Are they in the same tank?
Great list. I love Corys too. Have a 65g tank with 10 different pairs. The Sterbaes do a little dance together everyday
Iâm new to the hobby but have definitely invested a lot of research and effort to make sure my fish are happy and have lots of space. I currently have mollies and still am trying to learn more about them. I currently have two that look pregnant but itâs been almost a month and still no babies. However I watch a lot of your videos because I do have planted aquariums for my fish and have learned A LOT from this channel!
Love the videos keep up the good work
Sometimes I hatch the eggs mine lay for my other tanks. Love these little guys
Iâve always had a albino corys through out my years of 30 years of fish keeping :) so active and funny đ shooting upto the surface of the water and doing funny little tricks while checking on u while u watch them ha so cute âșïž.
Hi from the UK. Love corydoras. I started with 3 peppered only to have them breed really well, now have quite a few. Have 11 in my tank now in varied sizes. My original Cory's are really quite tame. Such interesting little fish. Usually collect the eggs then i have dozens of baby Cory's. Great video
Just got some panda corys and I adore them! It's so cute how they wiggle as they swim! They're such hard little workers! :D
Hands down my favourite fish. I currently own 4 on this list and they're just so darn cute. It's hard working with one of my aquariums on my desk with that level of cuteness distracting me.
I have 7 Habrosus in my heavily planted 8 gallon and theyâre great to watch. Fun little group đ
I like the Spotted Cory-Corydoras Melanistius, I have a group of 6 in my 75 with Angels and Rams.
They have the black dorsal and eye stripe like the Panda with the spots of the Sterbai, stay small 2-2.5" only about $6 ea.
I love corydoras, their very hardy and easy to care for, and very CUTEEEE
Love the Corydoras! Amazing little fish that breath life into all my setups. Some of my favorites are: Sterbai, Julii, Pandas, Adolfo's, Similis. Thanks for posting!
When I moved into my mom's old home about 5 years ago, I found an old 10 gallon tank I had as a teen in storage. I set it up, then went to the local store and they had 3 what I'm pretty sure are Corydoras bilineatus so I took all of them as I knew from past experience they liked being in groups. One unfortunately died of unknown causes last year but the other two still seem happy and active for being just a pair. I live in an area where the hobby is pretty limited so have been unable to track down any of their species but I love these two little corys, always been my favorite genus of pet fish.
I love Cories. There one of my favorite freshwater fish. This video has me thinking about setting up a freshwater tank.
I love my Julii corydoras. Super active and super cool looking. They look great in my planted 20 gallon along with my platies.
Corys have grown on me so much that I have dedicated a whole tank to them. In this 200 litre tank I have roughly ten of each Corys I could find which are the Sterbai, Juli, Nicaraguan, Albino, Peppers, Adlofi, Agasizzi, Bronze, Meta and the Panda. I would like to add more as I find them.
