Your lily pipe looks to be too large for your setup. 15 cories in a 1ft cube, isn't it too small? Bottom space seems very little for so many faunas.

Unique hardscape. But like they've mentioned, too many fishes inside there man! And just a suggestion; lose the air stone.

I have to agree.. 15 corydoras in a 1ft cube is already quite a squeeze at their size. I would say, lose everything else in there. Rams, once paired up, will become very very territorial and everything else will suffer since they have nowhere to hide in a small tank. 4 x L181s will compete for ground space as well and adds to an already heavy bioload.

The real estate space in the tank is quite abit as i do not have any other scape except for the wood. The L181s are having their own fun in the wood. Cories have ample ground space to wander around.

Just saying bro.. In the end its your tank. A 1ft cube is not exactly big enough for the cories to grow up in. Once again though.. Watch for when the rams start to get into the breeding mood. They are highly territorial and will nip at any other fish. This is especially detrimental to the slow moving cories and plecos. Remember to do regular WC since your bioload is pretty high. Good luck.
