About the Elegans Corydoras

Name: Elegans Corydoras

Max Size: Elegans Corydoras (Corydoras elegans) typically reaches a maximum size of 2-2.5 inches in length.

Water Parameters: Elegans Corydoras prefer water conditions with a pH range of 6.0-7.5 and a temperature between 72-78Β°F. They appreciate clean, well-oxygenated water, so regular water changes and efficient filtration are important.

Diet: Elegans Corydoras are omnivorous and have a diverse diet. They will readily accept high-quality sinking pellets or flakes as their staple diet. Additionally, they enjoy live or frozen foods such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia. Providing a varied diet is beneficial for their overall health and vitality.

Temperament: Elegans Corydoras are peaceful and social fish. They are known to be shoaling species, so it is recommended to keep them in groups of at least six individuals. They coexist well with other peaceful community fish and can make great tank mates for a variety of species.

Tank Setup: Elegans Corydoras appreciate a well-decorated aquarium with plenty of hiding spots. Provide them with fine-grained substrate, such as sand, to protect their delicate barbels. Driftwood, rocks, and live plants can be added to create a natural and stimulating environment. Ensure the tank has a secure lid as these fish may occasionally jump.

Compatibility: Elegans Corydoras are compatible with other peaceful community fish, especially those that occupy different levels of the aquarium. Avoid keeping them with aggressive or fin-nipping species that may harass or stress them. Also, avoid housing them with large predatory fish that may view them as prey.

Behavior: Elegans Corydoras are known for their playful and active behavior. They spend a significant amount of time scavenging the substrate in search of food. They are bottom-dwelling fish and will often swim in a graceful manner near the bottom of the tank. They are generally peaceful and do not display aggressive behavior.

Fun Fact: Elegans Corydoras, also known as Elegant Corydoras, are popular among aquarists due to their attractive appearance and peaceful nature. They have a distinctive pattern of black dots and lines on a silver or bronze body, giving them a unique and elegant look. Additionally, Elegans Corydoras are known for their interesting breeding behavior, where the males will chase the females and perform a courtship dance to initiate spawning.

Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) I’ve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

Wonderful shop with lots of variety. Has the most unique selection of fish on the island, and at a reasonable price! Staff is friendly and very helpful when we have questions or concerns. Love coming here and seeing the jokes around the store. Also, Vinnie!

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
