    to my understanding, corydoras are bottom feeders,and from what i saw in my old tank,they like to nudge and dig at gravel in search for food..was wondering if they would be ok in a planted tank because i don't really wish my plants to be uprooted.thanks[]

    Not a problem with plants with deep roots. May be a problem with the shallow rooted carpet plants like APP. Mine used to create jungle paths in my APP, especially along the glass.
    Vincent - AQ is for everyone, but not for 'u' and 'mi'.
    Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:
    A woman, without her man, is nothing.
    A woman: without her, man is nothing.

    don't worry, cories don't rip up plants at all
    compared to keyhole cichlids, they're positively tame
