Albino Cory Catfish and Powder Blue Dwarf Gourami

OK I jumped got four Albino Cory Catfish and one of them looked like it was trying to school with my Powder Blue Dwarf Gourami for a while it's stopped for now but I want to know if this is natural when first introduced to the tank also now they have all been swimming all individually around the tank is this normal?

It's quite normal for corys to swim up & down & glass surf when introduced to a new tank, they'll settle down after a while.
I'd suggest when you can to get a few more as they'll feel more secure in a larger group.

 

What size tank?

I doubt it was really trying to school with the DG. Probably still getting used to the new tank.

I plan to have a total of six but four is all Petsmart has in stock at one time they informed me they won't have anymore till the first of August minimum or I'd get them sooner than that.

I just stressed the poor Cory's out by doing my weekly water change I just got them last Wednesday and I do water changes Tuesday nights I hope they calm down they're darting all over the tank in a way they weren't doing since three days after I put them in they're going up and down the tank is this normal?

That's normal too. I find that my corys are a lot more active right after a water change. They're just enjoying the fresh water.

 

Thanks I thought them were just stressed out.
