I guess I should have read this posting first. I jsut bought three Spotted cories, or melanistius cories. I bought Hikari's bottom feeders wafer algae that says its designed for catfish and bottom feeder fish too and I three in a couple wafers, even right in front, but no interest. The darn barbs greedily were getting to it.
Then I tried putting one in a cave. Maybe since they are new to the tank they will take awhile to adjust? They dont move around too much right now and I think they may not be real hungry since I saw one or two go after the wafer very briefly. |
