DP's with C. Habrosus?

Post by Jennuine75 »

So I am obsessed with tiny fish. And I've kept DP's before in a tank with Amano shrimp and they got along well. It could be because I introduced them together at the same time... anyway I digress. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with DP's and small cory cats. I know that DPs can be very territorial but I saw the salt and pepper cory today and fell in love! I would like to get both and introduce them at the same time to avoid territory issues. But any advice or comments/suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

I love cories too but the puffers will nip their fins off.
