    Nice corydoras you have there!!

    Is that a goldline, sterbai and xinguensis?

    I think you need to ensure that when the tank settles in, there's a patch of open ground for the cories. Your hairgrass might overwhelm the foreground in due time and these fishes may be deprived of a resting place.

    If you could add some broad leaf plants, your cories will also appreciate it. They rest on these leaves sometimes. Anubias barteri or lotus are good choices.

    Hope to see update of your tanks more often.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    like what benny mentioned, some big leaved plants and open space will give the corys place to hide and dig around.

    Maybe you can remove some HG from front to create the space.

    Your Aponogeton Ulvaceus looks kind of wilting. Is it because the filter output is close to the plant?

    Perhaps you can re-direct the filter output so that the ulvaceus isn't disturbed. It should grow rather tall and bright green. The leaves are also rather soft, so IMHO the direct water current might affect it.
    Yecch!
