Fullers Corydoras Fulleri 3cm Catfish

Fuller’s Cory is a rare and attractive Corydoras species known for its elegant patterning, subtle metallic sheen, and calm temperament. As an active bottom-dweller, it brings constant movement and charm to peaceful community aquariums. Its rarity in the hobby makes it a prized choice for Cory collectors and planted-tank keepers.

Found in freshwater tributaries of South America, particularly in Peru. It inhabits soft, clean, slow-moving waters with sandy substrates and leaf litter.

Omnivorous and easy to feed:

• Sinking micro-pellets and catfish wafers
• Frozen foods (bloodworms, cyclops, daphnia, brine shrimp)
• Occasional live foods for conditioning
  Avoid feeding only floating foods—them being bottom feeders, they prefer food that sinks.

Ideal for peaceful community setups with:

• Small tetras and rasboras
• Dwarf cichlids (e.g., Apistogramma, Mikrogeophagus)
• Peaceful livebearers
• Other Corydoras species
• Small peaceful loaches

Avoid: Large or aggressive fish that may outcompete or intimidate them.

Very low. Corydoras are peaceful schooling fish and should be kept in groups of 6 or more for best natural behavior.

Beginner to Intermediate. Hardy once established, but appreciates good water quality and a soft sandy substrate to protect their barbels.

• Temperature: 72–79°F (22–26°C)
• pH: 6.0–7.5
• Hardness: 2–12 dGH
• Notes: Provide gentle filtration, sand substrate, and plenty of hiding areas using plants, driftwood, and leaf litter.

Fuller’s Cory (Corydoras fulleri) is a rare and peaceful bottom-dweller that brings personality and beauty to calm, well-maintained community aquariums. Perfect for enthusiasts and Cory collectors.
