cw217 cory

A large growing species of Cory, the Concolor or Slate Cory is found in softwater streams throughout the Orinoco and its tributaries in Colombia and Venezuela. The newly discovered CW217 Rio Tomo Cory variant (Hoplisoma concolor Rio Tomo CW217) is remarkable with their bicolor variation. Like most Cory catfish, they are peaceful, hardy, and best kept in groups due to their schooling nature. Because of their larger adult size, Concolor Corys make for great bottom feeders or dithers in aquariums with medium South or Central American Cichlids or other predatory fish which aren’t large enough to try to make a meal of them.
