Price range: AED 12.50 through AED 15.00 + VAT
The julii cory is a nocturnal bottom dweller that will clean your tank with the sensitive barbels it uses to find food. It has the unique ability to rotate its eyes, so it appears to wink. Corydoras julii (also known as the julii cory or leopard catfish) is a small freshwater catfish native to eastern Brazil. It is often confused with Corydoras trilineatus, the three-striped corydoras. Corydoras julii are small, peaceful shoaling fish, and are typically kept in groups in captivity.
