Freshwater Fish    Catfish    Corydoras

 

 Corydoras schwartzi

The Corydoras group is the most kept catfish in the aquarium hobby due to its small size and docile personality.  They can be kept in just about any community aquarium as long as their tankmates don't harass them.  They should be kept in shoals of 4 or more fish per species.  Food is not a problem as they will eat any general flake food or sinking pellets.  They will do even better with the addition of some type of frozen or live worm in their diet as well.
