Corys are hardy fish for their size and are staples in freshwater community tanks. Cory Catfish are often described as armored catfish, due to their plates of bone-like material running the length of their bodies. There are many different Cory Catfish types, all varying in size and color, but Bronze Cory Catfish are probably the most common.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the best things is that Cory Catfish care is easy. Corys have a calm, peaceful and non-aggressive temperament. Some Cory Catfish types are more shy and timid than others. This may also have something to do with their size relative to the other fish in the tank. It also can be related to the tank dynamic in general. Corydoras Catfish are active and curious bottom dwellers, methodically scavenging the tank bottom looking some food to eat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCory Catfish can be very active during the day, but they can also spend time peacefully resting motionless in the same spot. Corys may move about the tank at night, but they seem to be more active during the daytime hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA Cory Catfish is a bottom dweller, so it’s a good idea to keep at least 2 inches of aquarium gravel or substrate on the tank bottom. Cory Catfish also seem to really enjoy a tank with lots of live plants.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Live aquarium plants provide cover and hiding places for the fish to rest. Finally, be sure to include rocks and decorations that provide places to explore.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCory Catfish diet includes basic food types including fish flakes, pellets and bottom feeder tablets.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0283\/4314\/0431\/collections\/images-1_d4fdac36-81bb-4643-bf7c-af40cf22035e.jpg?v=1600310091","url":"https:\/\/rare-aquatics.com\/collections\/cory-cats.oembed","provider":"Rare Aquatics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
