Native to Brazil, this peaceful and animated schooling fish is highly sought after for nano, community, and planted aquariums. When kept in groups, it displays beautiful synchronized movement and constant bottom-level activity.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"523\" data-end=\"773\">A classic scavenger, Corydoras similis prefers sand or smooth gravel to protect its delicate barbels. Easy to care for and adaptable, it readily accepts dry, frozen, and live foods. While generally shrimp safe, very small dwarf shrimp may be at risk.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"775\" data-end=\"778\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"780\" data-end=\"812\">What We Like About This Fish<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"815\" data-end=\"872\">Very peaceful and hardy addition to almost any aquarium<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"875\" data-end=\"943\">Compatible with most adult dwarf shrimp and peaceful invertebrates<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"946\" data-end=\"990\">Thrives in schools in well-planted aquaria<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"993\" data-end=\"1054\">Distinctive violet coloration and attractive group behavior<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr data-start=\"1056\" data-end=\"1059\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"1061\" data-end=\"1092\">Recommended Tank Parameters<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"1095\" data-end=\"1133\"><strong data-start=\"1095\" data-end=\"1111\">Temperature:<\/strong> 20\u00b0\u201327\u00b0C (68\u00b0\u201381\u00b0F)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1136\" data-end=\"1155\"><strong data-start=\"1136\" data-end=\"1143\">pH:<\/strong> 5.5 \u2013 7.2<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1158\" data-end=\"1178\"><strong data-start=\"1158\" data-end=\"1165\">KH:<\/strong> 0 \u2013 15 dKH<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1181\" data-end=\"1234\"><strong data-start=\"1181\" data-end=\"1203\">Minimum Tank Size:<\/strong> 15 gallons (for a school of 6)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr data-start=\"1236\" data-end=\"1239\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"1241\" data-end=\"1260\">Care Guidelines<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"1263\" data-end=\"1361\"><strong data-start=\"1263\" data-end=\"1272\">Diet:<\/strong> High-quality sinking dry foods plus live and frozen meaty foods (variety is essential)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1364\" data-end=\"1433\"><strong data-start=\"1364\" data-end=\"1384\">Social Behavior:<\/strong> Peaceful \u2014 must be kept in groups of 6 or more<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1436\" data-end=\"1486\"><strong data-start=\"1436\" data-end=\"1447\">Origin:<\/strong> Tank-bred (species native to Brazil)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1489\" data-end=\"1533\"><strong data-start=\"1489\" data-end=\"1512\">Average Adult Size:<\/strong> ~6 cm (2.4 inches)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1536\" data-end=\"1581\"><strong data-start=\"1536\" data-end=\"1562\">Average Purchase Size:<\/strong> ~2.5 cm (1 inch)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1584\" data-end=\"1661\"><strong data-start=\"1584\" data-end=\"1600\">Shrimp Safe:<\/strong> YES with adult shrimp (very small shrimp may be preyed upon)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":113,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"etheme_brands":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[23],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-112","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) -
