Planted tank, preferably with a sand substrate. Peaceful. Community, peaceful with all other fish. They are hardy and make an excellent addition to any peaceful community aquarium. Like all Corydoras, they are best kept in a group, where they will be bolder and more active.

My bronze cory was bought when I started my 10 gal. tank and seemed (after a few weeks) to be quite bold. I have recently added another cory to the tank and the bronze cory is the dominant leader of the pair. They seem to follow each other around though so I think that one or a group of cory(s) doesn't change the behavior significantly.

I have two they are so cute. They never leave the others side. They can grow up to 3 inchs and get really fat. But they almost always stay 1 to 2 inchs and thin. I have them with 2 panda Corys and a Chinese Algae Eater. I love them.

These Cories are very easy to breed. I started with 1 female and 3 males. I now have 16 and with no special effort on my part. I just feed them and change the water. Nature does the rest.

This fish does an excellent job on the bottom. It keeps the tank well along with an algea eater. It does well with any fish.

I used to have one of these very nice fish. (it was lost in a tank crisis)They are easy to keep. To feed them, just leave a tablet in the fish tank at night. Happy Fishkeeping!

Active, gentle fish, that fit well into a community or goldfish tank. They are easy to care for. I have had success keeping them singly or in pairs. Also, they are fairly long lived; I have had several individuals that have lived over 3 years.

I love Cories! I currently have two bronze cories and am adding a pair of albino cories to my community tank soon! I can't wait! I have had experiences with many different types of fish and own many different breeds but cories just stand out as an excellent breed! These fish are so peaceful and fun to watch! They are amazing bottom cleaners and get along great with all other community fish! I soon hope to start breeding my cories. Cories are a very interesting breed and are fun to have! I recommend them to any fish keeper! Good Luck!

Bronze corys like to school and should be kept in groups. They are peaceful community fish that stay small. When keeping corys, ensure that they have a dark area to rest during the day, as are nocturnal. Bronze corys will eat ordinary flake food and various worms. A pleasant, active yet hardy fish to keep.

I really like Albino cory catfish. They are very cute and peaceful fish. I use to have 2, one male and one female, the female did lay some eggs on the side of the tank, but sadly I dont have them any more.I gave them to my friend. I plan to get more but first I got to fix up my 20 gal tank and my 10 gal tank.

Love my albino cory. He's such a sweet fish. I went to the store to get some tankmates for him after I found out that they like buddies. Waiting for them to get a shipment in.

He has a really good temperament and he's fun to watch. Highly recommended fish.. best bottom cleaner ever.
