Can I get corys?

[Owlbehere]

Okay you know what happens when you have an empty tank sitting around. You start thinking. I had to restart my 60g. Its about to start cycling. I replaced the gravel with sand and now looks like it should have corys swimming around in it.

My stocking plan, plans to be:
Leopard Bush Fish
Paradise Fish
Clown Pleco
5-6 Odessa barbs
6-8 Lamp eye tetras

I have:
Leopard bush fish
Paradise fish
Clown pleco
2 odessa
5 lamp eye

Can I have a school of corys too, or would I be way over stocking?
What would you recommend for my barb and tetra schools (how many)?
2 HoB filters, Marineland and Aquaclear (both rated 70g each)

I would be worried about the bush eating the corys so IMO you shouldn't risk it.

I was thinking these [Only Registered Users Can See Links.] ? The emerald green cory / Iridescent plated catfish. The ones at our petsmart usually come in about 2 1/2 inches. And are supposed to get 3-4". Thats why I wanted to know if it would be overstocked.


And does the amount of tetras/barbs seem right?

bump... Ok more of a nudge :)

6 barbs is good, odessa barbs are great, very underrated fish but beautifull once they colour up.
Any schooling fish it is good to have 6 or more
