The Multiradiatus Cory is a delightful addition to my community tank. They are active, clean, and don’t stress other fish. I feed them a mix of sinking pellets and frozen bloodworms every day. They stay healthy and curious even after a few weeks.

These fish are easy to care for and very social. They enjoy the bottom of the tank and dig around the substrate. I noticed they eat both plant-based and animal-based foods, so variety helps keep them happy.
