There isn't much floor space in my tank, it's overgrown for guppy fry to hide in. ;)

Ah fair enough. :)
I've seen a few vids online where the tanks have open spaces for them to graze so was just a bit concerned.
Will see how they get on.
Thanks

The open floor space in my larger tank is purely for the Sailfin pleco. In the smaller 125l tank, I recently added 10 panda cory and a BN pleco plus Cherry Barb. There is no big open areas in this tank. It is covered with wood, leaf litter, plants and a silly submarine :rolleyes:

They all look happy enough grazing and whizzing over all of it :D

So it looks like a 6th baby Panda inhabits the tank.

The one on the right is one of the first youngsters and is around 15 to 20mm in length.

This was taken just after tonight's water change.

Apologies for the picture quality.
I can see this is going to lead me into buying a proper camera and getting into photography at this rate ;]

I remember the days when Panda Corydoras where very expensive and very few people had actually bred them in the home aquaria. :]
WARNING - DO NOT BREED, FEED OR PET THE PUDDLE! :dodgy2:
