Brilliant captions! Thanks all

Next up: "Where's Cory?"... how many Corys can you find?



(I hope that the forum lets you zoom into the pic).

It's a bit tricky when they're not wearing their red and white striped jumpers....

I can only find two, paleatus have good diguises for your tank.

[YnotFish]

Actually there were (at least) three. There is a very old Sterbei hiding in the upper left corner

[plankton]

I would not have spotted that one (by the way, that's the right of the picture )...!

[YnotFish]

Having just read Plankton's Cory guide, I am now having a very quiet panic...
I have the following fish at the moment:

• 1 very large/old/active Siamese Algae Eater

• several white Mollys

• an Angel Fish

• about 15 Rummy Nose Tetras

• a couple of Sword Tails

• one very old Sterbei Cory

• four Peppered Cory (fairly new additions)

So, I researched in the Internet and thought that 25°C would be ok for them all, but now I am not so sure.
What sayeth the Forum Gurus?
And if I need to reduce the temperature, how quickly should I do so?

[Gingerlove05]

I would say 24/25°C would probably be a half decent compromise. The hardest ones to please there are the rummys as they like it warm.

[plankton]

Agreed, the peppers are the problem with temperature as they really don't agree with long-term higher temps. (Sterbai are ok with it.)
Can you swap them for aeneus?

[YnotFish]

Pretty sure that the LFS won't be up for swapping fish.
Also, not sure how accurate my heater is, it was set to 24°C, but my thermometers read 25°C, so I have dropped it a little.
The Cory's seem happy enough though.
