🗓️ Pre-Order Now — Available for Pickup from Wednesday 9 April. Secure your fish today and collect from Rockhampton from Wednesday onwards.

Bronze Corydoras are one of the most popular and reliable bottom-dwelling fish in the aquarium hobby. Known for their peaceful nature and constant activity, they are an excellent addition to community aquariums.

These Corydoras are always on the move, foraging along the substrate and adding life to the lower levels of the tank.

At N8 Aquatics, our Corydoras are carefully quarantined and conditioned to ensure strong, active fish ready for their new home.
