Panda Cory Stocking

[Flowerhorn_K]

Hi,

I want to stock some panda cories into my tank. The dimensions are 40 x 20 x 20 inches (100x50x50cm), how many panda cories could go into it? If I were to stock the cories only (create a panda topia lol)

if they are the only fish going in, 20+.

I have 12 in a 29g 30x12x18high. I have guppies a BN pleco shrimp mystery snails nerite snail. If they were the only thing in my tank I would be comfortable adding 3-5  more to that foot print. Remember if you go species only tank you will get babies most likely. So I agree 20 is a good starting number. 

Ps I would not drop all 20 in a new tank all at once spread it out a bit to give bacteria a chance to catch up

agree, a few groups of 6 or so at a time would be a good way to go.

If the only fish, a lot. 
 

Depending on filter, plants, etc., you could do 40-50, no problem.
