Description: Sporting a nice green color over its full body, with orange spots around the gills, cory eques are a rare type of Cory. Cory catfish are peaceful community bottom-dwelling scavengers. They are schooling fish that do well in groups of four or bigger. They originate from Central & South America, and require smooth gravel or a sandy substrate. They are fairly hardy and easy to keep once a tank has been established. They are nocturnal scavengers, so feed as late as you can.
