The Green Cory Longfin is one of the newer varieties of Corydoras species. They show their best behavior while shoaling in groups of 2 or more fish. The Green Cory Longfisn is extremely peaceful making it a great addition to any community tank and even most shrimp tanks. They reach a max size of around 3.5 inches counting the tail. Care is needed to keep their water clean as their longfins are a bit more likely to get fin rot. Usually, a good water change will clear up early stage fin rot.

Corydoras species prefer a sand substrate as they enjoy scavenging for food. It is also less abrasive to their barbels making sand the best long-term substrate solution for the Corydoras family.
