Green Lazer Corydoras

The Green Laser Cory is a stunning and highly sought-after Corydoras, admired for its intense metallic green stripe that runs along the body. This shimmering “laser” effect makes it a standout bottom dweller in planted and natural-style aquariums, especially under good lighting.

Despite its premium appearance, the Green Laser Cory is hardy, peaceful, and well suited to community setups, making it an excellent choice for aquarists wanting something truly eye-catching on the substrate level.

Behaviour & Compatibility:
Green Laser Corys are social and peaceful, best kept in groups of six or more. They spend their time actively foraging across the substrate and are compatible with other calm community fish. They are generally shrimp-safe with adults, though very small shrimp or fry may be eaten.

Care Requirements:

• Temperature: 22–26°C

• pH: 6.0–7.5

• GH: 3–10

• KH: 0–6

• Diet: Omnivorous – sinking pellets, wafers, frozen foods, and live foods

• Tank Size: Minimum 80L

• Temperament: Peaceful, shoaling bottom dweller

Breeding:
Breeding Green Laser Corys is possible in home aquariums with stable conditions and cooler water changes to trigger spawning. Eggs are laid on glass, plants, or hardscape and can be raised on infusoria and powdered foods before transitioning to baby brine shrimp.

Why We Love Them:
The Green Laser Cory combines classic Corydoras behaviour with breathtaking metallic colour. Their active foraging, peaceful nature, and striking appearance make them a premium yet rewarding addition to planted community aquariums.
