Overview
The Cory adds interest and beauty to the lower regions of your aquarium. This popular aquarium scavenger has an iridescent, bronze body with pinkish underparts. In addition to an ornamental presence, the Cory Cat provides the valuable service of devouring uneaten food on the aquarium bottom.
Also known as the Bronze Catfish or Emerald Brochis, the Bronze Cory Cat comes from the regions of South America in the Amazon River basin. It inhabits waters with high vegetation and neutral pH.
A minimum aquarium size of 30 gallons is recommend for the Bronze Cory. To replicate the natural habitat of this catfish, the aquarium should be well planted with plenty of driftwood. Maintain a pH close to neutral and provide strong filtration to ensure proper health.
In the aquarium, females will collect the eggs in a pelvic fin basket and deposit them individually on plants, rocks, driftwood, and other objects. Pairs have been known to produce 900 to 1,100 eggs.
The Emerald Green Cory Cat will eat food that has settled to the bottom of the aquarium. However, supplemental foods such as bloodworms, tubifex, flake food, or sinking carnivore pellets should be offered to ensure proper nutrition.
