Stunning in planted tanks
Peaceful community fish
Orange Venezuelan Corydoras (Corydoras venezuelanus) are peaceful social catfish with warm orange-bronze coloration. A proper group creates constant activity along the lower level of the aquarium.
They do best with smooth substrate, clean water, and direct feeding with quality sinking foods.
Care Notes
Use smooth substrate and keep the bottom clean. Feed sinking foods directly so the Corydoras receive a complete diet.
Keep at least 6 for more natural social behavior and visible activity.
