Information: |
This species is very similar
to the Surinam species, C.
punctatus, but is from Brazil. Exported
from Brazil as "Super Punctatus". 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. |
