Relevant Information:

Was first given the code number of C023 before description. Belongs to a group of long-snouted species in which males exhibit a thickened and bristled first pectoral fin ray. A variable species which can show the black blotch on the body in different sizes. Placed in Lineage 1, and when there is a revision they will stay as Corydoras (Lacépède, 1803) with the type species of C. geoffroy La Cépède, 1803. Aquarium Care: As this is one of the longer snouted species it will be well suited to most community tanks. A well planted tank with a soft substrate such as sand so they can bury their snouts while searching out food. Diet: Readily accepts a mixed and varied diet which includes granular foods, tablet food, frozen bloodworm and good quality flake.
