Цоридорас свиња

Corydoras delfax or Corydoras-mumps, scientific name Corydoras delphax. Scientists named this catfish in honor of not the cleanest animal for one reason – it also digs the ground with its nose in search of food. The word “delphax” from ancient Greek just means “little pig, piglet.” This, of course, is where their commonalities end.

Catfish has several closely related species that look almost identical, and therefore there are difficulties with identification. For example, it is very similar to such species as Spotted Corydoras, Short-faced Corydoras, Agassiz Corydoras, Ambiyaka Corydoras and some others. Often, different types can be hidden under the same name. However, in the event of a mistake, there is no problem with maintenance, since they all need a similar habitat.
