Green Laser Corydoras

Green Laser Corydoras are omnivorous bottom feeders that consume sinking pellets, algae wafers, and frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp. Feed small amounts once daily, ensuring food reaches the substrate where they forage. They also benefit from occasional vegetable matter and will scavenge leftover food from other tank inhabitants.

These peaceful catfish are nocturnal and most active during dawn and dusk, spending much of their time sifting through the substrate in search of food. They are social fish that should always be kept in groups of 6 or more to reduce stress and encourage natural schooling behavior. They rarely interact with other fish but may occasionally interact with tankmates during feeding times.

Breeding Green Laser Corydoras in captivity is difficult and rarely documented due to their undescribed status and specific environmental requirements. Successful breeding would likely require cooler water temperatures (around 72°F), pristine water conditions, and conditioning with live foods. Fry care would be challenging, as with most corydoras species, requiring infusoria and micro foods.
