Corydoras acutus (Blacktop Corydoras)

Sleek, active cory for established peaceful community aquariums

Quick Facts

  • Tank size: 50L+ recommended
  • Difficulty: 🟡 Moderate
  • Temperament: Peaceful
  • Best kept: Groups (5+)
  • Plant safe: Yes

Is this for you?

✔️ Good if:

  • You want a slightly more unique corydoras species
  • You have an established, stable aquarium
  • You keep peaceful community fish
  • You are comfortable maintaining water quality

❌ Avoid if:

  • Your tank is newly set up or unstable
  • You want a low-effort “clean-up fish”
  • You plan to keep just one
  • You keep aggressive or highly competitive fish

Why this fish?

Corydoras acutus is a more refined and less commonly seen corydoras species, valued for its sleek body shape and subtle contrast markings.

It offers the same peaceful nature and bottom-level activity as other corys, but is better suited to hobbyists with stable setups.

Common mistakes

  • Adding them to immature tanks → higher stress and losses
  • Keeping them alone instead of in a group
  • Assuming they survive on leftover food
  • Keeping them with aggressive or fast feeders
  • Neglecting water quality stability

Care made simple

  • Temperature: 22–26°C
  • Diet: Sinking pellets, wafers, frozen foods
  • Group size: 5+ recommended
  • Substrate: Soft sand preferred
  • Water: Clean, stable, well-maintained

Pair with

  • Sinking cory pellets or wafers
  • Fine sand substrate
  • Driftwood and plants
  • Peaceful tetra, rasbora, or nano fish
NTA Insight:
Compared to common corydoras, this species benefits more from stable water conditions. Most issues come from immature tanks rather than the fish itself.

FAQ

Is this a beginner fish?

It can be, but only in an established tank. It is less forgiving than common corydoras.

Can I keep just one?

No. Corydoras are social fish and should be kept in groups of at least 5.

Do they clean the tank?

No. They forage for food but still require proper feeding.

Do they need sand?

Soft sand is preferred to protect their barbels, though smooth substrate can also work.

What do they eat?

Sinking pellets, wafers, and frozen foods like bloodworms or brine shrimp.

She loves them!!
Color: Matte Black, Clear Lenses, Size: Standard
Bought these for my daughter that is a content creator.. she does cooking and food reviews.. She absolutely loves these glasses!!!! They aloud her to free up her hands and not have to worry about holding her phone or using a tripod as much.. the video and picture quality is great.. I've heard her both listen to music and talk on the phone with them. They also look great on her. She is going to add her prescription lenses to them.. These meta gen 2 glasses are pricey ($322 plus tax on sale).. But if you creat content even at the regular price its a no brainer..

I use them daily
Color: Matte Black, Transitions Grey Lenses, Size: Standard
Enjoying arguing with the Meta AI, which is often wrong until you point it toward a current source of info. Bought them for the headphones, which, like the Xreal AR Glasses. Have an open air implementation that allows hearing stuff around you but playing music others don't hear. And the sound while having little bass, is quite good. The 3k hand free photo and video camera is a bonus, but only shoots in vertical, a stupid idea. But meant to push Instagram and Tic-Tic use. In 3k you can blow things up to 16x9 and have ok results. It also answers calls and will do as much as you connect it to. You get the phone audio over the glasses for calls, playing YouTube videos or anything your phone plays, whether an app the AI uses or not. I have Amazon Music and Audible attached so I can voice command them while driving, but Serious radio and YouTube music are fine, but you have to start them manually. The skip to next song glasses commands work on these apps too. Overall a very entertaining device.

Actually honest review
Style: Convertible | Touch, Style: Convertible | Touch
I personally wanted it just for the work. I wasn't in the need of a laptop, that's why I bought a chromebook. 1. Packing is awesome (ASUS as always good), nice box with handle, inside of it the chromebook itself and 45W USB-C charger + some papers. 2. Setting up was fast, since I have an Android, but with the iPhone works the same, just scan the QR code and it'll download all it needs. 5 minutes and you're ready. 3. It's 2-in-1 with touchscreen, so you can just flip the screen and voila, now you have a tablet. Touchscreen is good 4. [UPDATED] Average battery life 7-8 hrs while working \\\ Battery life, one of the main things I bought it. It's really up to 11 hrs though it says it varies. But if you're gonna use it just for work as me, it's going up to 14 hrs. (you can see on my photo) 5. You can download Steam and theoretically even play some games on it, but I don't think it can run much 6. Weight, if it's really matter to you. It's 3.6 lbs, but I don't really care about it 7. It's pretty fast, sometimes might be a little bit slow, but it's already an hour I'm using it right now and there's no glitches or anything else at all. I think you just need to give it some time to "heat up" 8. Full functionality of a chromebook, I don't even know what to tell you here 9. Price is kinda high, me personally bought it because of the touchscreen, but if you really need just a tool for work, buy either a simple version of this chromebook or Google Pixel Go which is much cheaper. But if you want a good 2-in-1, buy it. I don't have any cracks on it, the delivery was good and fast and the chromebook book itself made awesome. I already have a gaming laptop from ASUS and these guys know how to do it! It's a nice device for it's price. I'm gonna use it for a while and then make the updates.
