Will peppered and bronze corys school?

Will peppered and bronze corys school? I have a small school of bronze corys and My Lfs just stocked peppered corys. Will they school even though they are not the same color? Thanks.

They hang out together in my wife's tanks.

Mine are in two distinct groups they don't interact with each other much.

It is not about the color.  They like their own type. 

They may socialise from time to time, but they prefer and will school with their own type.

I would increase the group of the same species min to 6 before considering another school

Okay thanks!

I have 1/2 dozen different types of Corys in 2 tanks. Some of the species really hang together in a group but others do not. The bronze are in the "sort of" schooling group as are the peppers. Minimum of 4 per species and look at your tank size -- maybe you can do 4-6 of each if your tank is big enough? I also had a problem moving 3 out of 4 of my reticulated juliis and only have 2 left -- they seem to be doing fine with the blacks (who are heavy schoolers) but I will be adding more juliis when they become available at my LFS because I really like them (and I like Corys, obviously!).
