Information: |
It is reported that there
is an occurrence of different head shapes between some populations
in this species, including sharp and rounded snouts. Aquarium
care: This is akin to most of this
genus, very peaceful, and would be best housed with small to medium
tank mates such as Tetras, Rasboras and Danios or
in a species tank for breeding purposes. Diet:
A good quality flake food and tablet food
for adults with sporadic feedings of frozen or live food will keep
your Corydoras in good health. Remarks:
Named after the river of the same name. |
