Hello, everyone!
I'd like to know if it would be ok to have cory catfish (I'm thinking specifically of Corydoras habrosus) in the tank with the substrate I have right now.
It's a small tank, 10 gallons, with natural plants (a lot of anacharis, a java fern plant, some vallisneria and an anubias), two rainbow rocks and 7 black neon tetras, and the substrate is Eco Complete by CaribSea. The impression that I have is that the particles are kinda sharp, so,I'd like to know if I can use it, anyway, if it's save for their barbels, or if it would be a good idea to put a layer of something like Tahitian Moon sand, by CaribSea (which is black, too, and easy to find nearby).
I'm going to take a picture of the tank, so you guys have an idea of what it looks like.
I've tried to search for the answer before asking it here, but couldn't find the answer for this exact question. Some people say it would be ok, some people say it won't, but I can't even find the information that I've looked for once, anymore
Oh, and I'm thinking of 4 cory cats. There some really cute, really small ones at the LFS, just saw them last Sunday. I know that there are some smaller species of corycats (pygmy cories?), but I can't find them anywhere!
Thanks a lot, in advance!
