I had a spare 12G tank so have put in 3 DP's and 3 corydoras

I was a bit worried at first about the peppered corydoras being in with the DP's but before I could get my camera one of the peppered corydoras was chasing a Dp all around the tank. Up to the top and all round the floor, he seemed to be playing but the DP was def not playing and wanted to get away. Like I said when I got my camera they stopped doing it (typical)

I got 3 femal DP's as someone else had just been there and got all the males. I think one of them maybe a juvenile male though as he has a yellow belly and his spot on his side is a little more oval (I'll have to wait and see)

Here's a short vid of them feeding on bloodworm (not the best vid though I'll get some better ones tomorrow)

they're so cute!

I love DPs with all my heart. I'd really love to have 100+ in one HUGE tank.

Awww cute, I might do 12gallon instead of setting up another tank which my dad don't wanna do.
I wanna do cory's, but I'm not sure about the nipping with the fins.
My tank will have
-drift wood and plants
-3 dwarf puffers
-3 otto's
and yea. lol

If the DP's turn nasty with the corys I'll just stick the cory's in my main tank, like I said though the DP's are more scared of the cory's which I was suprised to see

I bought loads of plants and a bubble stick for their tank and the guy at the LFS forgot to pack them in my bag!

So I've got to go back up there tomorrow, I'll probably end up buying something else now

Hmm..maybe I'll try it, but I want some one to clean off the glass like the otto's.

Very cool, id add another 2 or 3 pepperds, that tank will hold em

Yah they will be scared at first when they are still babys, untill they start imagining how tasty a cory would be, lol. Mine was scared of ghost shrimp at first and then one day there was no ghost shrimp
