That is fine for one. I think they get atleast 3 inches. And your supposed to have a gallon for every inch of fish. I think. Not to positive.

That sounds about right! If he doesn't start acting right I'll see if my teacher wants him or my mom's friend (she keeps a TON of fish. I gave her all of my gross snails). I feel bad keeping him if he is depressed cause he doesn't have any other Corys.

Understandable. I had only three at first (1 pepper, 2 emerald greens) and they didnt do much then 2 days later I went to petsmart and got 3 more emerald greens, now they are nuts. They dont even have fear of my peacock eel or kissing fish.

They do need buddies. You should have at least 4 (some say 6). He's probably freaked out.

Maybe I will talk to my mom's friend. She is a very good fish keeper and I'm sure she has more Corys. I thought he'd be 'friends' with my mosquito fish...but they play at different levels & my sorority is only a 10g with 5 girls.

Well good luck!

He has been acting a little more normal now. Once the pellets start to dissolve he eats them.
