Corydoras hastatus are very peaceful and social catfish that thrive in groups of at least six or more. Unlike many other Corydoras, they often swim in the mid-water column in addition to foraging on the substrate, sometimes schooling with small schooling fish. They are an excellent choice for peaceful community tanks and planted nano aquariums. Their active yet non-disruptive nature makes them a charming addition.
