Mine really love blood worms, so maybe you could try soaking the food in garlic. Or try brine shrimp, or live blood worms.

Re: I gots some more puffers... MWUAAHAHAHAHAAAAA!! Pic Update!
So i went to the the lfs today and got all low light plants, at least i was told they were all low light and low maintainance. Some wisteria, some anachris, and an anubia, couldn't get any more java moss though
... this makes the plant count in my tank:
6 dwarf brazilian swords, 4 small clumps of anachris, 5 small clumps of wisteria, 2 anubias, 1 onion plant, 1 crispus?, 2 low light lillies?, 1 banana plant, and the moss tree.
Substrate is 1/2 inch of black flourite covered in just over an inch of black argonite sand. also got a new peice of driftwood to attach the new anubia to and i got a new bubble strio that goes along the back. you don't see the DPs as much, because they explore the back hidden areas, but i think they will like this setup better, especially when some plants grow to the top of the tank. got some good fertilizer too! now just waiting on a better light.
this is no going to be fun to clean

My DPs barely touched bloodworms until they had demolished every single snail in the place. They were never actually that big on frozen shrimp, btw. Idk if yours will.
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Theres not really such a things most corydorads are small, the best species for that tank would be Pygmys these only hit 1/2" really, cory. napogensis these about 1" and are a little rarer but prettier. Most of the cory cats dont exceed 2.5". Then you move onto the Brochis cats which then hit 3-.5"Myaj wrote:I think you'll be okay putting the dwarf corycat in there (they are sooo tiny), just be sure you don't overfeed and be dang rigid on your water change schedule, no slacking allowed!
