About this fish
Orange Venezuelan Cory Catfish is a peaceful, sociable bottom-dwelling catfish that shoals and constantly forages. A superb, hardy community cleanup fish that's happiest in a group.
Care tips
- Use smooth sand or rounded gravel to protect their delicate barbels.
- Keep 6+ together — Corydoras are highly social and stressed when alone.
- Feed sinking foods; don't assume they'll survive on leftovers alone.
