The Albino Sterbai Cory Cat is a great cleanup crew member that does great with discus. Add a group and watch as they clean the bottom of the tank. They prefer lighter soft substrate for camouflage, which also helps them sift for food. They will spend most of their time scooting across the bottom of the aquarium, but sometimes you will see them swimming in the water column. They can be added to planted aquariums but not heavily planted since they need plenty of swimming space. Most of their diet will come from scavenging, but supplement their diet with sinking pellets and frozen meaty foods. Do not use a net to transfer this Cory Cat because it can damage their spines and barbels.

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.

Hi, I bought 6 platy fish and a black corydora catfish about 2 weeks ago, all seem in good health bright colours and swimming round as normal they are in a 48l tank which the pet store said was a big enough tank for them all, but one of them seems to be loosing his scales or I’m afraid he may have itch but it dosent look like it I hope you can help,thanks.
My Cory catfish has developed a weird bubble on it’s gill and I can’t find any information about it
Is it fine to have three Cory catfish with a betta in a ten gallon tank
I have a emerald cory and it’s skin looks like it’s peeling. I am worried it’s some type of infection. It’s color also got considerably darker and is swimming sluggishly and haphazardly. What do you recommend?
I dont know if you are a tropical fish specialist. But there is something going on in my tank and need help diagnosing it. My corydora has two raised growths ..one at the base of its fin. And one under the eye. My pleco seems a bit tattered too. A little flashing was happening with my yoyo loach also. That's now stopped after a water change.
Hi, I have a 48 litre tank with 6 platies and two red spotted snails, I also had a black corydora catfish he was fine lastnight but was dead at the bottom of the tank this morning, now one of my snails hasn’t come out or moved in 4 days I have tried the tests online to see if he is dead but I am still unsure if he is just sick or shy, is there anything you would recommend,thanks.(I have removed him into his own tank just in case.)
Hi, I had a bettas fish and a clown pleco. A day after doing a complete cleaning of the tank, my better fish died and my pleco started acting weird. I tested the water. Ph 7, ammonia 0, nitrate 0, nitrite 0. He is not eating, his skin started to look like white, like shedding? And now is like coming off. Also, his belly is bloated. I attached pictures.
So I have an established and cycled 10 gallon tank with 1 white male platy and 1 albino Cory catfish, the filter creates a bit of a current and then I have a bubbler to add more of a current, I also have a older maybe 2-3 year old betta who is very chill and I wanted to know I could put him in this tank happily and without fault?
I have new aquarium with few gold fish and milky white carp fish. Some skin problems is infecting in all my fishes like skin coming out. And all fishes are showing abnormal behavior. Please help me fr saving my fishes
