The Emerald Green Corydoras is a captivating freshwater fish well-loved by aquarium enthusiasts for its stunning green coloration and peaceful nature. This 10 pack offers an excellent opportunity to add a lively and active group to your aquarium, enhancing its visual appeal and ecosystem balance.

Size and Appearance

These corydoras typically grow to about 2 inches (5 cm) in length, making them a perfect fit for community tanks. Their shimmering emerald green bodies with subtle metallic highlights create a mesmerizing effect as they glide along the tank bottom.

Temperament and Behavior

Emerald Green Corydoras are known for their peaceful and social temperaments. They thrive in groups and often engage in playful interactions, which makes them wonderful for community aquariums. Their bottom-dwelling nature means they spend most of their time scavenging the substrate for leftover food.

Recommended Tank Size and Setup

A minimum tank size of 20 gallons is ideal to comfortably house a group of 10 Emerald Green Corydoras. They prefer tanks with soft, sandy substrate to protect their delicate barbels and plenty of hiding spots such as plants, driftwood, and caves. Adequate open swimming space combined with shaded retreats will keep them healthy and stress-free.

Water Parameters

• Temperature: 72-79°F (22-26°C)
• pH: 6.0-7.5
• Water Hardness: Soft to moderately hard (2-12 dGH)

Maintaining stable water conditions with regular cleanings supports their well-being and longevity. These fish are sensitive to poor water quality, so efficient filtration and regular water changes are essential.

Diet and Feeding

Emerald Green Corydoras are omnivores with a preference for sinking pellets, wafers, and live or frozen foods such as bloodworms and brine shrimp. Their natural bottom-feeding habits make them excellent scavengers, helping to keep the tank clean by consuming leftover food and detritus.

Compatibility with Other Fish

This species is highly compatible with other peaceful community fish like tetras, rasboras, and guppies. Avoid aggressive or large predatory fish that may intimidate or harm them. Keeping them in groups of at least six promotes natural behavior and reduces stress.
