Small - Medium Size Corys?

[zackish]

In another one of my post someone had reccommended some cory's for my tank. They had said small to medium sized ones, small being the panda ones. I was interested in what type of Cory would be considered "medium" sized?

[Fishguy2727]

Something like sterbai or paleatus. Actually most are more of a medium, with large being ones like green or bronze which can be 3" or more.

And the paleatus as recommended by Fishguy.

Are you crazy cocoa pleco, pygmy corys are the smallest or one of the smallest corys.

[YaYgoldFish]

i doubt hes crazy because he suggested a small cory..wich is what zacked asked for.

[troy]

Zackish specifically asked ,"I was wondering which type of Cory would be considered "medium sized", not small and medium sized Corys. I'm sorry but you[the P] and cocoa pleco are "Wrong".

[YaYgoldFish]

Yeah, but cocoa just said it as a suggestion. How am i wrong anyhow?

[troy]

First of all Pygmy Corydoras are small, not kinda medium as cocoa pleco said. That's how you're wrong, now deal with it.

[cocoa_pleco]

woah, buddy, okay, my suggestion is withdrawn :confused:. the world isnt gonna explode if he decides to go with pygmys. and i said "KINDA" medium, which is a mix of small and medium, close enough to most peoples standards

[troy]

Pygmy Corys are very small Corys, not small Corys.

[cocoa_pleco]

fine, but whatever, it was just a suggestion

[troy]

Sorry, it was just the kinda medium thing that bothered me.

[cocoa_pleco]

its cool. just agree to disagree

[Lady Hobbs]

Alright Already.

.....Sure are some abrasive personalityes here. Isnt the name of the thread "Small-medium size corys?" Google dictionaries defines pygmy as "an unsusually small ( <---key word here) individual). Just drop it. Do you realize what you are dissagreeinig about?

He makes a point... Troy, your the one thats "Wrong"

[troy]

okay agreed to disagree

[kkyyllee]

^^some ones angry geez

[troy]

Read the question.

[cocoa_pleco]

Read the question.


yeah, like the title, small-medium sized corys. lets just stop this. the thread is going too off topic

[zackish]

No need to get mad at anyone...I was just looking for suggestions for my 30 gal.
I wanna thank lady hobbs because the pics really helped...i liked the sterbai ones or whatever the top pick one was..

[Fishguy2727]

Sterbais are nice. I have 10 in with my discus.

There is no need to stick to exactly what the question is word for word. The point is to figure out good cories for the tank. That does not mean we cannot mention anything that was not specifically asked for.

[zackish]

christ this is an aquarium forum, everyone relax, I was looking for small and medium so it really doesn't matter, I don't know much about corys so I was looking for any names..it really doesn't matter, for all who helped, thank you.

[cocoa_pleco]

no problem.
