Do corys like algae wafers? Mine seems to eat it but he really seems to love the shrimp pellets. Right now I alternate between the wafers and shrimp pellets and then whatever else falls to the bottom from the other fish. Is there anything else that I should be giving him?

Sounds like a good diet, some frozen bloodworms or brine shrimp would be appreciated once in a while as a treat.

They like zucchini too.

Do you just cut up little bits of zucchini and let them pick at it or do you mush it up?

My old corys used to love sinking shrimp pellets. That's all they'd eat.

I put algae wafers in for my pleco but he never got to them because of the corys! haha

my BN pleco tries to chase the corys away from their sinking pellet, but he just ends up stuck in a pile of them. The corys have shown zero interest in the pleco's zucchini, and minimal interest in blood worms and brine shrimp.

The bottom feeder wafers are better for the cories from a nutrition standpoint. I feed mine the Hikari ones.
