Until I saw the twins, I thought you'd bought one of each species! Number 4's a beauty - I love those markings.

That's some pretty big gravel you've got there, as well. The Cory's do ok at digging for food?

I have 5-6 of each species, and they do fine foraging or food,
as you can see they look pretty healthy and thre is no damage
to their whiskers. Smile

some people like to keep them in a sand substrate,
but as i keep mostly cichlids, i use gravel in all of my tanks,
no clogged up filters then. Wink

My Cory's don't seem to mind the gravel either. I've seen almost bury there heads getting into it. I also haven't seen any indication that the gravel's a worry on the whiskers.

Mike, perhaps in Aquarium Chat, you'd like to share some specs of this camera of yours. It certainly does a top job!
