Albino Corydoras

Albino Corydoras are bottom feeders that consume sinking pellets, algae wafers, and high-quality corydoras-specific foods as their primary diet. Supplement 2-3 times weekly with frozen foods like bloodworms, brine shrimp, or daphnia to ensure proper nutrition. Feed small amounts once daily, removing uneaten food after 2-3 hours to maintain water quality.

These peaceful catfish are nocturnal and spend most of their time foraging along the substrate, constantly sifting through sand in search of food. They are social fish that thrive in groups of 6 or more, displaying reduced stress and more natural behavior when kept in schools. They are generally inactive during daylight hours but become more active at dawn, dusk, and throughout the night.

Breeding Albino Corydoras in captivity is possible but requires specific conditions including cooler water temperatures (around 72°F), frequent water changes, and a well-established tank with plenty of hiding spots. Males will chase females during spawning, and eggs are typically laid on plant leaves or tank glass; remove eggs to a separate rearing tank to prevent predation. Fry are small and require infusoria or liquid fry food initially before graduating to micro pellets.
