Corydoras polystictus

Post by MarlonnekeW »

Hi everybody,

Last week I was lucky to find the Corydoras polystictus at my LFS and I´m now the proud owner of nine of these little guys. I´ve been searching the internet to find some more information, but there´s not a lot of info available, so I hope any of you can tell me some more about this beautiful species.

So far, I found different info about temperature; 20-25°C or almost the opposite 23-27°C. Which range is the correct one?

I'm also curious about breeding them. There's one breeding report in the Cat-eLog, but since there's not a lot of people keeping them, it's hard to determine if they are hard to breed or that there's only one breeding report because they are rare. So are they easy or difficult to breed and are there any things I have to pay extra attention to?

Thanks for your help!!
