Corydoras davidsandsi is a distinctive species of corydoras fish native to Brazil's Rio Negro basin. It is characterized by its cream-tan body, bold black eye mask, and a striking black stripe that extends from the dorsal fin down to the lower lobe of the tail. This catfish grows to about 5–6 cm (2–2.5 inches) and is known for being a peaceful schooling fish that thrives in groups. Corydoras davidsandsi actively sifts through the substrate in search of food. Its unique "bandit-style" markings and rarity in the aquarium trade make it an exceptional choice for South American community aquariums.
