Corydoras sychri

This true mailed catfish comes from Peru, Rio Nanay and Rio Amazonas near to Iquitos. Lately these corys are imported in several variations of pattern colouration. This variability makes it difficult to determine this species. They are very similar to C. atropersonatus. C. sychri is a typical representative of the long nosed Corydoras group. This means that they are very sensitive to deterioration of the water conditions. About successful breeding there is up to now no literature available.(Text: I. den Daas, Photo: F. Schäfer)
