Dainty/Dwarf Spotted Corydoras Catfish

The Dainty Spotted Corydoras is a diminutive bottom-dweller prized for its peaceful temperament and algae-scavenging habits. These catfish reach just 1-1.5 inches, making them ideal for smaller aquariums and community tanks. With their distinctive spotted pattern and armored plating, they add visual interest while actively foraging along the substrate. Hardy and undemanding, they thrive in well-established tanks with gentle filtration and prefer sandy or fine gravel bottoms. A small school of 4-6 individuals creates natural schooling behavior and reduces stress, making them an excellent choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists seeking low-maintenance bottom feeders.
