Antti,

thank you for understanding,really. for some reason, you are the only one that gets what i am saying, or pinting out, there are mean 'experts' so to say, who think they know everything, belive me, i work at a fish only store, i get alot of 'know-it-alls'...hmm sounds familiar

i am happy that you aquire the knowlage on corys, and breeding them as well, to me since i am obviously not as 'knowlaged' as everyone here, it seems you are rather crude with your responses to someones wrong doing, or what you think is wrong...and i dont have an attitude, i have also myself, only ...

undergravel filtration is a no no with planted tanks, why would you need to use them with corys?...Coryman, i have 'fine gravel' then, sorry, my gravel is much smaller than peas, but over here we consider pea-gravel, gravel that is smaller than normal...i wouldent see a problem with corys not being ...

Coryman,

sorry but i have to comment, it is not like the cross breeding was done on purpose, if you didnt know- things like this sometimes happen, people cant be as perfect as you, sorry, you seem to jump down peoples throats, you must know everything! hence the name 'coryman', i think sometimes ...

pea gravel is actually better than sand in my opinion, when using sand with plants the roots of the plant usually decompase and spoil underneith the sand, i have used sand for a while and in my opinion is horrible for planted tanks, it is not a good substrate in the long run...second, they are beach ...

usually i dont buy expensive fish because i work at a really fine fish only store and am allowed into the fish distributor...but anyway, i was at another store the other day and saw one of these, i was amazed by its truely weird colors...right now my ph is at 6.0 and i have a 70g planted tank with ...

i have heard that the pygmys (dwarf) corys dont spend too much time on the bottom, and they actually like to swim in the lower middle regions of the tank...i have a 70g planted tank with leaf litter/pea gravel bottom, the species i have as of now are a school of 14 Serpae tetras,a pair of Splash ...
