Agassizi Cory Cat

The Agassizi Cory Cat comes from the river tributaries of the Peru area, and is a peaceful bottom dwelling scavenger. The Agassizi has many black spots covering the body and a black, mask-like stripe covering the eyes. The Agassizi Cory Cat requires a well planted aquarium with plenty of hiding places that provide relief from the light. A smooth sand or gravel substrate is needed because of the easily damaged barbels. They enjoy being in numbers, so a small school of six or more is ideal for these cats. Breeding the Agassizi Cory Cat has not yet been accomplished in an aquarium and little is known about its breeding requirements. The Agassizi Cory Cat is omnivorous and will require a well-balanced diet including dried, flake, frozen, and live foods. Feed a quality flake and pellet food as well as frozen brine and live worms. Approximate Purchase Size: 2 cm to 4 cm
