Description
Hognose Brochis (Corydoras multiradiatus) is a captivating freshwater catfish species that aquarium enthusiasts adore for its unique appearance and peaceful demeanor. Let’s dive into some fascinating details about this delightful fish:
- Appearance: The Hognose Brochis has an elongated body with a high back and a flattened belly. Its large dorsal fin rays run along its back, and its pectoral fins are translucent with a delicate, feathery appearance. The coloration can vary from light brown to dark gray.
- Size and Growth: When fully mature, adult Hognose Brochis reach an average size of 3.5 inches. They are relatively slow growers, taking several months to a year or more to reach their full size.
- Lifespan: These catfish can live for 5 to 8 years or potentially longer.
- Habitat: In the wild, they inhabit slow-moving rivers and tributaries with sandy or muddy bottoms in South America, specifically Brazil, Colombia, and Venezuela.
- Tank Setup: To replicate their preferred calm waters, provide a tank size of 20 gallons or more. Use a gentle aquarium filter or a sponge filter to avoid excessive surface water movement.
- Tank Mates: Hognose Brochis thrive in groups of six or more individuals. Compatible tank mates include tetras, rasboras, guppies, dwarf gouramis, and other Corydoras species.
- Fun Fact: The name “Hognose” comes from their longer snout compared to other Corydoras species, giving them a distinctive appearance.
