Cory's Feeding

Feeding time-- the highlight of my fishies' aquarium life...

Corydoras are hearty eaters, making feeding time truly a sight to see. I feed them OSI Shrimp Pellets, Hikari Sinking Wafers, and occasional frozen bloodworms. I used to feed them Tetra Bits when I could not find any Hikari sinking wafers and I noticed enhanced red tone coloration among the Corydoras caudimaculatus.
I like to drop the food out front so I can see them and make a headcount. The Corydoras Paleatus are always first in the feeding frenzy while the Corydoras Schwartzi take their time before leaving the shelter of their favored spot-- a driftwood cave.
