Information: |
Similar looking to C.
atropersonatus from Peru but with
a black edging to the dorsal fin. The males are particularly nice
when in breeding condition. 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. |
