Kuhliis with Cory Cats?

[Graeme Robson]

Hey all,

I found some Panda corys at my local pet store, and love them. I'd like to get another variety of cory as well, and I was wondering if someone could recommend another type of cory that would be hardy but very small like the Panda. Thanks!!

They are called Pangio! Also known as Kuhli's/Coolie's!

I agree about the C. panda. I know you mentioned this earlier, but a lot C. panda's are not that healthy because of mass production and they arent as strong. Now, if you can get a group of wild C. pandas, then thats great. They will be healthy and should spawn very easily. C. pandas can also be shy with bigger, aggressive tank mates. .

Yep, I have read this about pandas on many boards. I suspect it may be a N. American problem. Here most of the pandas in stores are pretty bullet-proof little buggers. Are they wild caught, I doubt it, but they are clearly hardier. They also are not intimidated by any larger or more aggressive fish. They are not in the least shy.
