Description
One of the larger and more impressive species of Corydoras, the Peru Black Cory is similar to the more well known C. fowleri but have more solid black coloration throughout the body. Found in shallow, sandy and rocky stretches of Peru’s Rio Tahuayo, they do best in aquariums with plenty of open space and moderate current. In the aquarium, they are hardy and make an excellent addition to the lower levels of a medium sized community aquarium or with more peaceful South American Cichlids.
