Bronze Cory Catfish! Corydoras (Aeneus).

Welcome to the lovely little Cory Catfish world. Free tips about keeping Cory Catfish. Cory Catfish information, and more on Cory Catfish, your home and family and pet home.



The Bronze Cory Catfish, Corydoras Aeneus is widely distributed in South America on the Eastern side of the Andes, from Columbia and Trinidad to the Rio de la Plata basin.

They are found in quiet, shallow water with soft bottoms.

Males grow to 6.5cms and females 7cms (2.5inches-2.75inches)

Colors vary from yellowish pink body, white belly and blue-grey over its head and back. Fins are yellow or pink.

They have dorsal, pectoral and adipose fins with an additional sharp barb which have a mild poison that causes fish, which try to attack them, to get stung.

A brown- orange patch is usually present on the head, just before the dorsal fin and is the most distinctive feature when viewed from above the water.

Bronze Cory’s need to have hiding places, so you can add a dense growth of plants for them. They are easy to feed, eating all flake and pelleted food and live and frozen foods.

Water temperature should be between 20c- 28c (68f-82f) with ph 6.0-8.0 and hardness 2.30dgh-5.19dgh.

Like your Siamese Fighting Fish/Betta fish, Bronze Cory’s can come to the surface and take air through their mouths.

They love to be in groups of 5 or more.

The lifespan of your Bronze Cory could be 10 years, so you could have a lovely pet for a long time.

Peppered Cory Catfish!

Welcome to the lovely little Cory Catfish world. Free tips about keeping Cory Catfish. Cory Catfish information, and more on Cory Catfish, your home and family and pet home.



Corydoras Paleatus, or Peppered Cory originates from the lower Parana river basin and coastal rivers in Uruguay and Brazil.

They grow to about 5-9cm or 2-3 inches. Males are smaller, although the dorsal fin and pectoral fins are longer on the male.

They are found in ponds and feed on worms, insects and plant matter.

They are hardy, good looking and peaceful fish. Their barbels (whiskers) are sensitive and they need fine sand/ gravel which looks like course salt, as a substrate.

Peppered Cory’s prefer a planted tank, with temperatures around 60-75f (20-24c) and like to nibble on algae that grows on floating plants.

The lighting in the tank should not be too bright. Plenty of hiding places such as bogwood (mopani wood) can be added.

If you find they dart quickly to the top frequently check the water quality!

Peppered Cory’s will eat sinking pellets, algae wafers, frozen and live food and bloodworms or Daphnia.

Panda Corydoras Catfish!

Welcome to the lovely little Cory Catfish world. Free tips about keeping Cory Catfish. Cory Catfish information, and more on Cory Catfish, your home and family and pet home.

Panda Cory Catfish!

Panda Cory’s are found in Peru, South America in the Huanaco region and are native to riverine fauna.

They inhabit the Rio Aquas, the Rio Amirillae, a tributary of the Rio Pachitea and theRio Ulayali river system.

It seems they got their name because they sort of look similar to the Giant Panda of China, with large black patches surrounding their eyes.

Water temperature could be cooler than other Cory’s, from 16c—28c.

Water quality is more important with this fish because of its native habitat, where the water is very clean!

Cleanliness of the substrate is also very important as well!

Panda Cory’s are intolerant of poor aquarium maintenance and will succumb to stress and disease very rapidly if their aquarium is not kept up to a high standard!!

They like to live in groups of 8 or more.

Their food should include blood worms, Daphnia (brine shrimp), and high quality flake foods containing shrimp.

If well cared for, Panda Cory’s may live more than ten years!

Magic Cory Catfish.

Welcome to the lovely little Cory Catfish world. Free tips about keeping Cory Catfish. Cory Catfish information, and more on Cory Catfish, your home and family and pet home.



Magic Cory Catfish for you!! 3

Corys are active during the daytime, so you will be able to see them going about their business while you are awake.

They tend to be shy creatures that are better to have in a group. They get on well with other fish as well as your African Dwarf Frog.

Cory Catfish are also bottom feeders and forage in soft sand, or gravel. Their main diet is insect larvae and various worms in the wild.

They usually search the bottom with their sensory barbels and suck up food items with their mouth. This is the reason why you would need a soft sand substrate.

Anything hard will damage their barbels and they will not be able to eat and so will die of starvation.

You can feed your Cory supplements of live and frozen foods. If you use flake foods take care to prevent it from being eaten by other faster moving fish, (e.g. Siamese fighting fish/ Betta fish) at higher levels of the tank.

Urgent!! Danger! New fish tanks!

Welcome to the lovely little Cory Catfish world. Free tips about keeping Cory Catfish. Cory Catfish information, and more on Cory Catfish, your home and family and pet home.

URGENT! DANGER! New fish tanks!

I have had numerous people tell me that their new fish has died, just a few days after bringing them home. These people have asked me if I may have an answer.

Yes I do!

New fish tanks can be very toxic to fish in the beginning. Your new tank has to be ‘cycled’ before you place your new Siamese fighting fish/ Betta fish, Cory Catfish or African Dwarf Frog into the new tank.
