Flag Tail Panda Corydoras are absolutely one of our favorite small fish. These Corys are fairly rare in the hobby. Their vertically striped tail makes them unique compared to the more common Panda Corydoras. If you’re looking for a cute, schooling fish, these guys are for you! Due to their adorable schooling behavior, these fish have become pretty sought after in the hobby. We sell them at about 1 inch in length but they can grow to a maximum size of about 2 inches.
We recommend keeping these fish in groups of 3 or more to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in a larger school.

Received my Flag Tail Panda Corydoras in great condition. They were active and swimming together in the tank. I kept them in a group of five and they seem very happy. The schooling behavior is adorable and adds a lot of charm to the aquarium.

The fish arrived quickly and looked healthy. I was a bit worried about rare species, but they are active and seem to adapt well. I plan to keep them in a group of six for better social behavior.
