tiger barbs and peppered cories
« on: May 05, 2011, 08:46:28 PM »
i have two Corie's in a 15 gallon and i was thinking of adding some tiger barbs, but i know they can be kinda aggressive and nippy. the Corie's do have a huge cave for protection but i don't want them to be harassed. has anyone done this before?

Get at least one more peppered cory. They need to be in small groups, at least three. The barbs will likely ignore them.
