Cory Catfish

Cory Catfish for Sale

Corydoras catfish are peaceful, bottom-dwelling fish beloved by aquarists for their social behavior, armored appearance, and effectiveness as substrate cleaners. On Light Fish you'll find a wide variety of cory species listed by breeders and hobbyists — including peppered corys, emerald corys, panda corys, sterbai corys, and rarer species like CW-number and undescribed Corydoras from South America. Many sellers offer tank-raised specimens that are disease-free and well-acclimated to aquarium conditions.

All cory catfish orders on Light Fish are backed by a platform-wide Live Arrival Guarantee. Fish are packed in breather bags with temperature-appropriate packs, shipped in insulated boxes via priority or overnight carrier, and weather-monitored in transit. Corys are social and should be kept in groups of at least six of the same species. They prefer soft substrate (sand or fine gravel), temperatures of 72–80°F, and tankmates that won't harass them.
