Corydoras aeneus. A hardy bronze-green catfish that patrols the bottom of the tank in groups. One of the easiest and longest-lived community fish.
Keep over sand or smooth gravel to protect their barbels. Very hardy and tolerant of a range of water.
Sinking pellets, wafers and granules, plus frozen bloodworm and brine shrimp. Feed some food after lights-out so they get their share in a busy tank.
Spawns readily after a cool water change, laying sticky eggs on the glass and plants. Move eggs to a separate container to raise fry.
