Rusty Corydoras
Corydoras rabauti
Corydoras (Corys) are very popular in most aquariums due to their easy going nature, their ability to clean up the bottom and their hardiness. They enjoy the company of their own kind and so should be kept in groups.
The Rusty Cory is a stunning little fish that develops stunning violet, orange and metallic green coloration as it matures.
They have an ability to breath atmospheric air from the surface.
Current Size – 2-3cm
Adult Length – 6cm
Temperature Range – 22 – 29°C

Special Requirements - The main thing with Corys is to ensure that they do get food. In a busy community environment, feed some sinking micro-pellets to make sure the Corys get some. Also sand or smooth fine substrate will maintain their barbels in perfect condition.
Tanks Mates and Compatibility - They are a good community fish as they are peaceful, especially if kept in groups.
Feeding - Will accept most quality feed that sinks to the bottom.
We recommend:
Please note – Some images used are library photos and will show the colour potential at a fully mature size, as our fish are juvenilles they may vary.
We always aim to supply the fish as close to the purchase size as possible. However if this is not possible, we will always contact you to discuss.
The fish are selected at random however you are welcome to make a note on the order and the fish manager will do his best for you. This is dependent on current stock at the time of your order.
