the Jack D's will be nudging the Cory's around anyway, and if they spawn, that may be doom for Cory's... the JD spawn will be on bottom, and near the Cory's food zone
and...as Big Gourami pointed out, the spines of a 1 inch Cory stick into the mouth of the JD's and the Cory will drown, while you get to use needle-nosed pliers or long hemo's to remove the Cory, or else JD dies too
....otherwise the scales and points of a Cory are very durable and an effective means of surviving the nipping and nudging of predators...while the Cory's are so peaceful
...i like a group of Cory's 8-12, they're happy together |
