{"product_id":"albino-cory","title":"Albino Cory","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlbino corys are native to South America, growing up to 7.5cm in length. They are peaceful, hardy bottom dwellers identified by their pinkish -white bodies and unusual red eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecial requirements: Albino corys are best kept in groups of six or more as they are a shoaling fish. Adding a larger group of corys to your tank will reduce shyness and promote natural behaviours. Corys generally thrive best and demonstrate natural behaviour when kept as a single type of cory, as supposed to lots of different types, however it is possible to house different types of corys in one aquarium.\u003cbr\u003eAlbino corys have the ability to breathe intestinally so it is common that they will travel to the surface of the water. It’s best to leave a gap at the top of the tank to give space for them to come to the surface, it’s also best to house them in a shallower tank so that their journey to the surface is shorter. They can live in deeper tanks but benefit from creating mid-way points in the tank for corys to rest in on their journey to the surface of the water – this could be provided by hardscape materials or plants such as Amazon sword. Corys also benefit from being on a tank with a large bottom as the enjoy rooting around and foraging in the substrate. Corys are best kept in a tank with a sandy bottom, this mimics their natural environment. Avoid course gravel substrate in tanks with your corys- the jagged edges can damage their sensitive barbels as they sift the substrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiet: At Wirral Aquatics we feed our Albino corys \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wirralaquatics.co.uk\/products\/ebo-foods-pro-soft-mussel-125g\"\u003eEBO Pro Soft Mussel\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wirralaquatics.co.uk\/products\/ebo-foods-pro-soft-insect-meal-125g\"\u003eInsect Meal\u003c\/a\u003e. Our corys also enjoy a range of live foods including bloodworm and tubifex. Blackworm is known as a trigger for facilitating corys to spawn because it is very good for their overall health, body condition and egg production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTank mates: Great tank mates include tetras, guppies, rasboras, danios and dwarf cichlids.
