Larger than many other Corydoras species, this active schooling fish makes an excellent addition to community and planted aquariums, adding both movement and color to the lower tank levels.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"460\" data-end=\"746\">A classic scavenger, it prefers sand or smooth gravel to protect its delicate barbels. Easy to care for and adaptable, the Emerald Cory readily accepts dry, frozen, and live foods. While generally peaceful, it is best kept with larger shrimp, as very small shrimp may be viewed as food.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"748\" data-end=\"751\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"753\" data-end=\"785\">What We Like About This Fish<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"788\" data-end=\"845\">Very peaceful and hardy addition to almost any aquarium<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"848\" data-end=\"920\">Compatible with peaceful invertebrates too large to be considered prey<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"923\" data-end=\"967\">Thrives in schools in well-planted aquaria<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"970\" data-end=\"1033\">Distinctive metallic coloration and attractive group behavior<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1036\" data-end=\"1086\">Grows larger than many close Corydoras relatives<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr data-start=\"1088\" data-end=\"1091\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"1093\" data-end=\"1124\">Recommended Tank Parameters<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"1127\" data-end=\"1167\"><strong data-start=\"1127\" data-end=\"1143\">Temperature:<\/strong> 20\u00b0\u201328\u00b0C (68\u00b0\u201382.4\u00b0F)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1170\" data-end=\"1189\"><strong data-start=\"1170\" data-end=\"1177\">pH:<\/strong> 5.0 \u2013 8.0<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1192\" data-end=\"1212\"><strong data-start=\"1192\" data-end=\"1199\">KH:<\/strong> 2 \u2013 15 dKH<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1215\" data-end=\"1276\"><strong data-start=\"1215\" data-end=\"1237\">Minimum Tank Size:<\/strong> 55 gallons (for a school of 6+ adults)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr data-start=\"1278\" data-end=\"1281\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"1283\" data-end=\"1302\">Care Guidelines<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"1305\" data-end=\"1403\"><strong data-start=\"1305\" data-end=\"1314\">Diet:<\/strong> High-quality sinking dry foods plus live and frozen meaty foods (variety is essential)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1406\" data-end=\"1475\"><strong data-start=\"1406\" data-end=\"1426\">Social Behavior:<\/strong> Peaceful \u2014 must be kept in groups of 6 or more<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1478\" data-end=\"1543\"><strong data-start=\"1478\" data-end=\"1489\">Origin:<\/strong> Tank-bred (species native throughout South America)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1546\" data-end=\"1599\"><strong data-start=\"1546\" data-end=\"1569\">Average Adult Size:<\/strong> 7 \u2013 8 cm (2.8 \u2013 3.2 inches)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1602\" data-end=\"1648\"><strong data-start=\"1602\" data-end=\"1628\">Average Purchase Size:<\/strong> 2.5+ cm (1+ inch)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1651\" data-end=\"1724\"><strong data-start=\"1651\" data-end=\"1667\">Shrimp Safe:<\/strong> YES with larger shrimp (small shrimp may be preyed upon)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":111,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"etheme_brands":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[23],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-110","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-corydoras","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.8 (Yoast SEO v27.8) -
