Care guide at a glance
Hoplisoma trilineatum
Description
A finely spotted cory with a dark lateral line running the body, sometimes sold as the three-line cory. Hardy, peaceful and a long-standing community favourite.
Feeding
Sinking pellets, wafers and frozen foods, delivered in enough quantity to reach the bottom.
Compatibility
Entirely peaceful. Keep in groups of six or more.
Behaviour and personality
Busy bottom-dweller, active during the day and constantly sifting the substrate.
Before you buy
Soft sand protects the barbels. Frequently confused with the very similar Hoplisoma julii, and the two are often mixed in the trade.
