The Aspidoras
genera differ from Corydoras by their different behaviour
such as their swimming habits. The eyes are smaller, body smaller
and a smaller head shape in Aspidoras
compared with Corydoras. Aspidoras posses a duel fontanel
bone structure in the skull whereas Corydoras have only the
one larger fontanel. Aquarium Care: They
are best kept in groups of six or more and are best housed with
small fishes that are not aggressive. Provide a planted area in
the tank for cover and include a soft substrate such as sand or
small rounded gravel. Diet: Flake, tablet foods,
small live and frozen foods.
