Sixray Corydora (Aspidoras pauciradiatus) is a small, peaceful schooling catfish known for its delicate golden-bronze body marked with fine dark stripes and spotting along the sides. Growing to about 3–4 cm (1–1.5 inches), it is one of the smaller corydoras-type species and is ideal for nano and planted aquariums.
Highly social and active, it thrives in groups and spends much of its time foraging along the substrate for tiny food particles. It prefers soft sand, gentle water flow, and well-oxygenated conditions, making it a subtle but lively addition to community tanks.
