Sterbai Cory Cats

My Sterbai Cory Cats keep dying off and i dont know why. My water parameters are fine all my other fish are healthy. I did lose a angelfish as well but it came from a friends tank who he kind of abandoned so i expected it to die. But i dont understand why the corys did. I had them for about two weeks and all they did was swim up and down against the glass for two weeks now they're all missing and ive found two of them dead.

Do you use gravel or sand in your tanks. Gravel can hurt there barbels so be careful. corys and angels both need soft and acidic water. hope i help

But so many people keep them happily in gravel tanks, for years with no problem

And I don't know about corys, but angelfish can adapt easily and even breed in hard alkaline water :)

What other fish do you have in the tank? Were the cories skinny looking?

2 of mine died suddenly too, but It seems to be due to low O2 levels and high co2. Hope you find the problem.
