How many bags for a 250 lilters fish tank

It depends if you want a well planted fish tank ,one bag will spread and give approx 1\8" or just less cover which isn't really enough to allow plants to root although some will it you also use gravel. I used 2 bags in my 250 litre tank plus gravel and my plants have rooted well and are quite stable

How many Kilos would be needed for a Triton 350 corner aquarium. (350 lts)

My Fluval Flex 57l (39cm x 39cm or 15" x15" base) took one 8kg bag and covered it to a depth of 5-6cm. Hope that gives you an idea.

Would this be ok with cory catfish?

Yes, fine with cory catfish. I have ten plus adult peppered cories and they are breeding constantly with eight babies now nearing adulthood.
