 Summary of corydoras(ln7) |
|---|
| Pronounced | kor ee doh rass (lineage seven). |
| Etymology | Cory = helmet, doras = skin. In this case it was incorrectly used to mean armour (cuirasse) instead of skin in allusion to the dual rows of plates that run along the flanks of this genus. |
| Furniture | Substrate should be fine sand, bordered with driftwood and aquatic plants leaving an open area for them to search for food and swim. |
| Sexing | Males are smaller and slimmer. Females grow larger and are much wider which can most easily be observed from above. |
