Panda cory information Please!

Post by labrakitty »

In my 126 litre I will be getting 6 panda corys. I have never kept corys before so I do not know much about them. I have 2mm earth coloured gravel, lots of bogwood and plants. I will be feeding them a mixture of flakes and algae flakes, hikari shrimp pellets and algae wafers, frozen nad maybe live brine shrimp. Anything else thye like? I would love them to breed are they likely to? Anything else I need to know. Ay ohter tips?

Thankyou!

The pandas should do fine in your set-up. In addition to the foods you mention you could try frozen blood worms. Keep the temperature in the mid 70's. Pandas are easy to breed. Best of luck with your first Corys.
