Black Venezuela Cory Catfish

Despite its "Venezuela" name, it is not from Venezuela but is instead from Peru. This black variant was developed and line-bred by German aquarists in the 1990s. The Black Venezuela Cory Catfish is a very peaceful schooling fish that is compatible with most community fish and grows to about 2.5 Inches.  Like most Corydoras species, these are peaceful fish, actively swimming on the bottom of the tank. They also prefer groups of 6 or more.

Environment for Black Venezuelan Cory

The Black Venezuela Cory Catfish prefers water between 72f-82f with a PH between 6.0 and 7.5. A group of 6 requires a minimum tank size of 20g. 

Feeding 

Black Venezuelan Cory

Corydoras are omnivorous and will eat a variety of foods. Good Quality sinking food like Dr. Bassleer Biofish Food or Northfin Kelp wafers is a great choice. Most high-quality sinking food will be fine. They will also eat fresh vegetables like cucumber or zucchini. Take a look at other Corys for sale at Michaels Fish Room here. Corydoras do best in a group of 6 or more. They are great for the community fish tank as they are peaceful and will help keep the bottom clean. They do well with livebearers, plecos, tetras, and most other peaceful fish.
