Can Emerald Cory (Brochis) live with Strawberry Rasbora?
Caution — with care
Why
- Very different sizes (Emerald Cory (Brochis) 3" vs Strawberry Rasbora 0.7") — these two need different tanks, and the smaller fish will be out-competed at feeding time.
Sweet spot: both do well at 73–79°F and pH 6–7 — aim there.
