Mesonoemacheilus guentheri - aggressive towards corydoras?
Posted: Tue Apr 10, 2007 9:53 am
I picked 3 Mesonoemacheilus guentheri (http://www.loaches.com/species-index/me ... -guentheri) up for the 38 gallon tank I setup in the office to replace my 55 that was destroyed by the drunken cleaning lady.
In the tank are 6 panda corys, and 3 peacock gudgeons.
The Mesonoemacheilus guentheri are very playful and interact with each other constantly, but since about 2 days after I added them, the corys rarely touch the substrate - they are "hiding" up in the branches/leaves of my live and artificial plants.
I haven't seen any aggression from the loaches, but I am not here all night - so who knows what has happened during the night.
Just trying to figure out what has happened - my corys just don't seem happy anymore!
