Corydoras simulatus

Breeding Corydoras simulatus

Corydoras simulatus (12-25-00) -- My original breeders were found one at a time in various pet shops over the years. In nature, this species is found in shoals along with Corydoras metae and can only be found as a contaminate in shipments with them. While both C. metae & C. simulatus resemble one another in color and markings, their body shapes are different. Corydoras simulatus are larger in size and have a much longer snout.
