I am getting 2 or 3 albino corys for my tank(look at sig. to see size and fish). I hace medium gravel. It is not sharp, but neither is it round. I am hoping they will be ok. It is the "normal" sized rocks that I see in most aquariums. Also do I have to feed them algae wafers? If so how often? Do they come to the surface to eat flake food? I need as much info as I can so I can take care of my corys. Thanks. :huh:
 
You can feed them algae waffer or anyother sinkign pellets. You can also feed them brqanched vegetables like ziccini or cucumber, anchored with a fork.

Some people say their cories dash to the food, but mine just take a long time to find the pellets. In fact, they feed mostly in the flakes that sink before other fishes can get them .
 
I would try a variety of different things anyway, most fish enjoy and benefit from different foods. My corys love shrimp pellets and algae wafers, but won't come to the surface for flakes. They just hang around the bottom and search for what comes down. I have lots of scavengers so I usually make sure I put in enough so that some sinks
