(Nov.13th 2008) This beautiful Corydoras is from Brasil, from Rio Uruara , which flows into Rio Curua Una south of the Amazonas to be exact. It was imported to Germany only in very small numbers. The more pleasant it is that bred ones are available for the first time. The catfish recall very much of the real Corydoras punctatus coming from Surinam. The fine punctuation as well as the shimmering shininess of its body is especially noticeable. The black spot in the back fin decorates this pretty catfish. Keeping this fish similars very much the way of keeping other Corydoras species. Soft, acerbic water is prefered. Corydoras sp. Uruara feel fine at 24-27°. Lower temperatures do ot quite please them. A socialization with peaceful, not too big species is possible without further ado. For an experienced breeder the breeding should be comparatively simple. The young animals grow fastly. A nice swarm will be an eyecatcher in every aquarium.
