I have a 55g also, and among other fish, I have 3 cories, 4 otos, 1 pl*co, and a few ghost shrimp. I get hardly any filth out of my gravel when I vacuum. I kinda like it that way.

you have room, the corys are compatible, and they will cost you under $10 bucks for the pair.

My 55 gallon is a slightly overstocked, semi-planted community tank. It currently contains:
about 8 male guppies(females are kept in a seperate tank)
3 cory cats(type unknown)
4 Otos
1 Pl*co named "Tucker"
5 Rasboras
7 Neons
3 Columdian Sharks "The Kitties"
4 Pearl Lyre-tail Mollies (1 male "Brutus", 3 female)
2 ghost shrimp
2 mini fiddler crabs.

There are about 7 different types of plants including Java moss, Mini amazon sword, moneywart, and some others that I don't remember the names of.

I have 2 Penguin 170 filters, 2 150w heaters, and a 36" bubble wall. I don't do CO2, and my lights are twin 15w. My plants grow like crazy, my water is clear, my fish are happy, the fish get along well, and I get hardly any filth off the gravel.

I must be doing something right, eh?

Please do not treat Corydoras as waste eaters/scavengers they are not, they need a good varied diet of their own.
Makes me mad at times that people still regard them as the fish that clean up the rubbish left by others.

Dude, ive got a single albino cory, and i love that lil bugger. I make sure I drop an extra frog pellet for him and get some brine to the bottom too.

Hey, though. I was thinking about getting some live brine, kind of to spoil my fish a bit. Would a cory eat those?

If he can catch them he will certainly eat Brine shrimp.
