Cories and eco-complete?

irishspy · Feb 21, 2009

Hi all,

I did a search but didn't see this particular question answered, so I thought I'd ask: Is eco-complete safe with cories? I've thought of using that as the substrate for my new 20-long, but I don't want the cories injuring their barbels.

thanks in advance,

If the substrate has rough edges, I'd forget about using it.

There's the rub: I don't know if eco-complete does or not.

Ecco is like sand, it won't harm their barbels and if they eat it it will pass right through

Thanks, Turbo. That's what I wanted to know. :thm:

I have cories on eco and sms, their barbels look great and they love burrowing around in it.

Just don't get the "flora" kind, it has sharp edges. Get the regular eco-complete.

Thanks msjinkzd, I thought that was eco-complete in those pictures you recently posted. It looks good.

Snoopy65, thanks for the warning. :clap:
