Corydoras trilineatus (Three -band corydoras)

Description

Her dress is white and has zebrures as well as a line that goes from the caudal to in the middle of the body about. It looks very much like Corydoras Julii but unlike this one that has black spots (points), the trineatus possesses zebraures.

A few smooth stones on the bottom, large -leaf plants in pots or small planters. Temperature between 22 and 24 ° C, T.H. less than 20 ° F and neutral pH or located between 6.7 and 7.5. To simulate the rainy season, we make a water change of 50 % with cooler water of 2 or 3 ° C. We remove the parents after laying. To fight mold, we can add acriflavin or methylene blue. Just before free swimming, lower the water level so that newborns bathe in food. Distribute powder for fry, plankton, microvers, artemia nauplies. Siphon waste every day and change the water cautiously by increasing the water level related to growth. (source aquabase.org)
