10 gallon stocking opinion?

Question

OK I need one more opinion before I go for it. I have a fully cycled 10 gallon tank with live plants and plenty of filtration. I have 6 glowlight tetras in there now and one oto. I would like to add 2 or 3 panda cories in there too so the question is - should the cories go in and how many? Thanks.

Answer 1

3 is pushing it to the limit, 2 would be better, although since cories like to be in groups, 3 is still probably better than 2. So buy three cories, but after that you have no more room to buy any fish, unless you upgrade your tank,

Answer 2

Cory's do better in groups of 3 or 4. I would go that route. Try to get them as small as possible to give them more room to swim :)

Answer 3

as long as you keep up with weekly water changes, and keep testing the water, add them. I would get at least 4 because cory's are much more active and happier in groups. But after that, your pretty much completely stocked. Glowlights dont get large, either do ottos.

Answer 4

I'd add just two, but with a 10 gallon be prepared to clean the tank like crazy.  

Answer 5

As long as the pandas seem healthy and you have ran the cycling time, and the tetras and the oto are healthy, I think that they should all be fine to put in. I'm still waiting for my panda cories to arrive yet, I'm so impatient.....good luck ;)
