Emerald Cory (Brochis splendens)

A large growing and colorful armored catfish, the Emerald Cory or Emerald Brochis has a wide range throughout much of the Amazon basin. Like most cory catfish, they are peaceful, hardy, and best kept in groups due to their schooling nature. Because of their larger adult size than most of their relatives, this species makes 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.
