Brighten up the bottom of your aquarium with a splash of fiery color! The Orange Venezuelan Corydoras is one of the most stunning and sought-after dwarf catfish in the hobby. While most corys sport subtle browns and greys, this premium variant boasts a rich, glowing orange-to-copper body contrasted by a deep metallic, teal-green patch across its shoulders.
As these fish mature, their colors naturally intensify, making an established school look like a moving cluster of molten copper under your aquarium lights. They are peaceful, highly active, and spend their days playfully sifting through your sand substrate, keeping your tank floor immaculate.
Why They’re Perfect For Your Tank:
Stunning Coloration: A brilliant blend of neon orange, deep bronze, and iridescent blue-green tones.
The Ultimate Cleanup Crew: These tireless scavengers continuously stir the substrate, vacuuming up uneaten fish food and preventing detritus buildup.
100% Community & Plant Safe: Completely peaceful. They will never nip at tankmates and will not dig up or damage live aquarium plants.
Delightful Schooling Behavior: They are highly social and find confidence in numbers. Watching a group of 6 or more shuffle along the glass together is sheer entertainment.
Beginner-Hardy: Exceptionally adaptable and resilient, making them an excellent choice for both new hobbyists and seasoned aquascapers.
Quick Care Specifications:
Diet: Omnivore. Provide a varied diet of high-quality sinking catfish pellets, protein-rich wafers, and occasional frozen treats like bloodworms.
Substrate Preference: Smooth, fine sand is highly recommended to protect their delicate sensory barbels.
Adult Size: Compact 5 – 6.5 cm.
Water Parameters: Temperature: 22°C – 26°C | pH: 6.5 – 7.5 | Hardness: Soft to Moderate.
Note: Corydoras are shoaling fish by nature. To see their truest colors and happiest natural behaviors, we strongly recommend keeping them in a group of at least 5 to 6 individuals.
