August 2006: With Corydoras spec. C 71 we could import a further rare species from Brazil. They originate from the Rio Arua in the Federal State Para. With a final size of 6 cm they belong to the medium sized Corys. The requirements for their maintenance might be the same as for other Corydoras species. An aquarium with open space and retreat areas, provided with fine sand, might be ideal. Probably they do not place excessive requirements against the water chemistry. Since well-known breeders already attempt to breed them there will be in some time offspring of them available.
