WHOLESALE SERIES: TROPICALI - COYDORUS ELEGANS - ELEGANT CORY

Saved these pictures initially as Corydorus nanus but now I have edited them I can see that they are actually Corydorus elegans.

The nanus species is a little darker than elegans, though my breeding male elegans do go very dark and the lighter parts actually turn gold.

Annoyingly my two pairs spawned once or twice a month and I could hatch the eggs but never keep fry alive for very long, but then I was totally limited by money and equipment.

Maybe one day soon I shall try again?!

Bottom feeders, pacful and good for cleaning up uneaten food, like all Corydorus and Brochis.
