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!
