I'm about to go by those 2 species of fish and I need to know what food I could feed them. List all available food please. Also anything else I would need besides a heater, air pump, and filter? Be specific as possible. Thank you! Hurry please

Heater, filter (air pump isn't necessary if you've got a filter), tank, water, water conditioner (to remove chlorine), food.
Food would be good quality flakes, small pelleted food, frozen daphnia, frozen bloodworms, and frozen or live baby brine shrimp.

The Cory Catfish is a very hardy fish, and can tolerate many water conditions. However, they prefer water temperatures between 73 and 81 degrees fahrenheit. The pH of their water should slightly acidic to neutral, with a level ranging from 6.5 to 7.2. Being a scavenger, the Cory Catfish will eat just about anything. Foods include live bloodworms, glass worms, brine shrimp, crustaceans, other invertebrates, and frozen, freeze dried and flake foods. Whatever they are fed, they should be fed at the bottom of the tank.

They will both like any flake food but since the Corries are going to be on the bottom, you may want to get them sinking shrimp pellets. Also, they will both enjoy frozen bloodworms... yum! You might want to see if any of them like a slice of cucumber, my Yo-yo Loaches love the stuff. If you do use cucumber, just drop in a thin slice, one per week (it doesn't need to be peeled, but if you don't peel it, you have to fish out the skin later.) Good luck and good choice of fish.

They both eats flake fish food but its better if you crushed them a little and the corys can also eat cory pellets as a healthy diet.

Neon tetra will just eat tropical flakes, and thte corys will eat any type of sinking catfish pellets

Neon tetras will eat any flake food, freeze-dried (make sure you crumble it up so it'll fit into their mouths), and live. Cory cats will eat sinking algae wafers and shrimp pellets.
