    Default Panda

    I breed a lot of panda cories, and was wondering if anybody had any success
    with keeping them in with Discus for a long time. I keep my pandas at a cool temp. (72 degrees) where they do well. I was wondering how they do at heigher temperatures.

    They do great I had pandas in my 125 for a while. But.. I had a discus emergency that called for salt and had no where to move them.... didn't end well for the pandas

    In my experience like most cories they don't do to well at higher than 80F
    But corydoras gossei and C.Sterbai do

    Just want to add that the pandas I had were in the tank with my discus at 86 with no problem for at least 6 months before I had my discus problems.

    Let me know when you have some ... I have a bunch of fry now that will be sizable by the fall. I've shipped to Canada in the past, but that was pre-9/11 ... don't know what the regs are now.
