{"product_id":"juli-cory","title":"Juli Cory","description":"\u003cp\u003eJulii Corys hail from Brazil although. Growing to 5cm in length, most Julii corys are bred in captivity. They can be referred to as leopard corys due to their leopard like patterns across their bodies. Special requirements: Julii corys are best kept in groups of six or more. 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. Julii corys can 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey can live in deeper tanks but befit 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\u003cp\u003eDiet: At Wirral Aquatics we feed our Julii corys \u003ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wirralaquatics.co.uk\/products\/ebo-foods-pro-soft-mussel-125g\"\u003eEBO Pro Soft Mussel\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wirralaquatics.co.uk\/products\/ebo-foods-pro-soft-insect-meal-125g\"\u003eInsect Meal\u003c\/a\u003e.
