Check Corydoras PandaThe Corydoras Panda is a charming bottom-dwelling catfish named for its distinctive black-and-white panda-like markings around the eyes.

Accessories
Seachem Prime Water Conditioner
Critical water conditioner for Corydoras tanks. These scaleless catfish are far more sensitive to dissolved toxins than other fish — Prime detoxifies chlorine and ammonia immediately, protecting their permeable skin during every water change.
Filters

A reliable HOB filter rated for 10-30 gallon tanks — ideal for a Corydoras Panda group. The gentle adjustable flow suits these calm bottom dwellers, while the multi-stage filtration handles the waste produced by an active shoal.
Food
Hikari Tropical Sinking Wafers
Sinking wafers that reach the substrate quickly, exactly where Corydoras Panda forage. The wafer shape allows a group of Corys to gather and graze together, encouraging their natural social feeding behavior. Drop one wafer after lights out.
Hikari Algae Wafers
Spirulina-enriched sinking wafers that supplement the Corydoras diet with plant-based nutrition. Their smooth texture is gentle on the sensitive barbels Corydoras use to locate food in the substrate.
