Hi! I have just added 3 Juli cory cats to my tank that has 3 platties. What should I feed the corys? The pet store sold me brine shrimp pellets....is this sufficiant or should I be feeding something different? Also how often should I feed...daily, right?

I feed my cory's twice a day, and I just feed them tropical fish flakes, they will eat whatever is on the bottom of the tank.

Hi concerned, Cories are scavenger fish. Just let them do what they were created to do. If your really concerned that they are not getting enough to eat or they are looking thin (hollow belly), place a weekend feeder block in the bottom of the tank. This also works well for all scavengers like loaches and botias.
