Hiya Linda,
I keep several pygmy corys with my snails (as you mentioned).....they touch my snail's tentacles and everything and the snails don't mind. ;D
Corys do better generally in groups of 4 or more....they like their own company.
I hope you post some piccies soon...I lurve corys hehe.

Cories are wonderful fish, completely harmless, and fun to watch when there's enough of them. Albinos tend to be a little more spazzy than some, but they don't mean any harm. They're NOT algae eaters!
Do get some more, the more the merrier!

Aww I love corys. I bought some more the other week. I've had 2 for years and they've been fine together but I thought I'd add some more Sadly one of the old ones was on it's way out and I lost it a few days after I got the new ones The new ones are following the remaining old one round though lol. Look at me mumbling on. Sorry! *Steals the pygmys btw* I want some but my lfs can't get them in P.S they're fine with my mts lol

Yeah, my albino's a nutter, I honestly believe that like other albino animals, his eyesight is worse - because he's forever swimming into other fish on his laps of the tank ;D
I dont have four albinos, but I do have a bronze (same type as an albino, just with colour), and two oddbods whose identity is a mystery to me, cos there's so many that look like them! We also have a peppered. I did have a lovely trilineata, but he died a few weeks back. No warning, wasn't poorly, just one morning we got up and he was dead.
So I've only got 5 in total. But it's only a Vision 180 (until I win the 5ft fish tank I'm bidding on on Ebay that is *evil cackle* - that'll make 3 tanks - the Vision 180, 5ft, and 6ft!).

I was watching my lot in the tank the other day and I gave them a couple of floating pellets. One of my brigs grabbed one, fell to the bottom and was eating it. The pellets are circular and it was moving around half in/half out of his big gob while he rasped and that made me giggle...then one of my corys comes along and starts nibbling at the rotating food ball. It was like an aquatic version of Lady & the Tramp. ;D

This is my pair of wotsits (so many types that look the same): This was my trilineata, alongside one of the above pair: Haven't got any pics of the others - really should try to - but as you can see from those pics, my camera doesn't take good pics of things in tanks *lol*
