jvision Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 If you really want "a large school of corys", aim for at least double the original amount. In large tanks, a "large school" doesn't look as cool as it does in smaller ones; but, there's something awesome about having a huge school of fish swimming together. I had a 120 gal w. 120 Cardinals and 25 rummynose - one of the best displays I've had! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoopkamol Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) I am Leading towards 100 cardinals and a school of 25-30 pygmy cories or 20 panda cories which I will order from Spencer in early July. Might toss in a BN for bit of algae control or couple of larger snails. Edited June 12, 2014 by zoopkamol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckmullin Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 For snails grab MTS, they are great for a planted tank. Pond snails I also recommend for a planted tank. I'd suggest to stay away from the apples snails and that sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
