This smallest Corydoras should be kept in a school just like
al other Corydoras. The aquarium should be planted
densely but a part of the bottom should be open with fine
sand because they like to search after food in it and their
tender barbels are easily damaged. A regular changing of the
water is appreciated. You should give them small live food. Dry food is accepted as well. Breeding is easy. You should feed them very well. After a large changing of the water and with lower temperatures up to 50 eggs are laid and fertilized. After 6 days the eggs hatch and another 2 days later the young fishes are swimming free. The first few days you can feed them with very fine infusoria and later with Artemia- nauplii. They grow very quick. |
