Venezuelan cory orange

Corydoras are popular bottom fish in aquariums because of their social behavior and interesting appearance. Here is some general information about corydoras, which you may be able to apply to the specific variety you mention:

1. Temperature: Corydoras generally want a water temperature between 22 and 26 degrees Celsius. It is essential to maintain a stable temperature to ensure their well-being.

2. Water Hardness: They cope well with a wide range of water hardnesses, but slightly acidic to neutral water is generally best. The total hardness (GH) can be maintained between 2 and 15.

3. pH: Most corydoras thrive in a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5. It is important to monitor and adjust the pH of the water to meet their specific needs.

4. Environment: Corydoras want well-planted aquatic environments with shaded areas. Be sure to provide hiding places like rocks or roots to help them. A soft substrate is recommended, as they want to burrow on the bottom.

5. Behavior: Corydoras are social fish that want to live in groups. A group of at least six individuals is recommended to encourage their natural behavior. They are known to be peaceful and generally coexist well with other fish species of similar size.
