I bought some of these last year. Right now I only have one left, as 5 of them died for some unknown reason. The one I have is in a 125 gallon tank and he seems to be fine by himself – he’s been alone for several months now. I’d like to get him a few companions but I never see them around anymore. I have a picture of him at: http://s270.photobucket.com/albums/jj88/gloria77503/?action=view¤t=0971pepperedcory125gal17aug2008.jpg
These are great bottom feeders. I have two in my 20 gallon tank mine are only about 2 inches long. Will be about 2.5 fully grown. Also have 3 Chinese Alge eaters but there is no conflict between the two and the tank stays nice and clean. No special food needed both are scavengers and clean up after the flake and broken up crisp food I use for my other fish. Even with their dark apearance they are amazingly iridesent. Silver/green accents as they swim… very nice.
Cons — NONE.
PROS:
I have 3 of these wonderful fish now in my 32 gallon tank and they are terrific bottom feeders. They are very communial fish and very easy to keep from a first time perspective. They swim together and are very playful enjoying eachothers company. 4 or more are ideal at keeping the tank clean and free of debris.
CONS: none to mention
I have one right now (I don’t have room for an entire school of them – I wish!). He shares a tank with my female guppies, and they get along swimmingly (pun intended). He cleans up their messes and uneaten food, which is wonderful since guppies poop a lot! He is hyper and full of energy, and doesn’t just hang out on the bottom, but swims around the middle of the tank as well. I highly recommend these fish, as they seem to make great additions to any tank.
I bought my peppered cory cat named eddie (after iron maidens mascot, because he is a trooper!) about 2 months ago and he is doing an awesome job at keeping my 20gallon tank clean hes energetic and has doubled in size since i got him (just about an inch to 2 inches). Love this fish and i hope that he lives a long life. Overall good fish keeps things clean and is fun to watch when he swims around with my tetras =) great fish recommend to anyone starting off who needs a resiliant and awesome fish.
I have one of these 2 bronze corys , 2 sterbai an i can honestly say im in love with corys. Such a happy little fish!!.
