Corydoras Aeneus Bronze 2.5cm (Group of 5)

The Bronze Corydoras (Corydoras aeneus) is one of the most iconic and widely kept catfish in the freshwater hobby, and for good reason. Displaying a warm bronze-green iridescent body with a pinkish-white underside, this hardy and peaceful bottom dweller has been a staple of community aquariums for decades. Active, social, and endlessly entertaining as they busily forage across the substrate, Bronze Corys are the perfect addition to almost any community tank and an ideal first catfish for beginners.
