Bluespotted corydoras Profile

The Bluespotted Corydoras is a small, freshwater fish distinguished by its attractive blue spots and markings on a primarily silver to greenish body. Originating from South America, it is a peaceful bottom-dweller that inhabits streams and slow-moving rivers. With a plump, armored body typical of the Corydoras genus, and reaching up to 2.5 inches in length, this species exhibits barbels around the mouth area, aiding in scavenging for food along the substrate. While not the most common species in the aquarium hobby, the Bluespotted Corydoras is appreciated by enthusiasts for its striking coloration and sociable behavior, making it a desired addition to community tanks that replicate its soft, acidic natural habitat.
