Title: Cory catfish
Post by: Steve on January 05, 2013, 05:24:56 PM

I just picked up a couple fat little Cory Catfish for my betta/neon tank. Never had Cory's before so was reading what to feed them and they say they will eat pellets. Will it be okay to feed them NLS 1mm cichlid pellets? or should I go buy a different pellet food just for them?  I know my Syno cats love the cichlid pellets but wasn't sure if Corys would be different or not.

They'll eat what your neons and betta eat. You might want to pick a couple more (corys) of the same kind they do better in groups. I generally try to keep 5-8 of the same species per tank.

Thanks, I was actually thinking about getting maybe a couple more. They are pretty interesting little fellas.
