Corydoras aeneus was one of the first of its genus to be readily available to the hobby and its popularity has lasted to the present day. Corydoras will appreciate some cover in the form of rocks or bogwood. Most Cory species occurs across a range of habitats from flowing rivers to still waters, so water flow in the aquarium is not critical.
