Hognose Brochis

Brochis multiradiata

An extended snout, metallic green flanks, a long-based dorsal fin and a paler belly distinguish this robust adult cory.

Appearance and identification

Compared with splendens, the extended snout and longer dorsal-fin base are visible clues.

A 120 × 45 cm base.

Leave smooth clean foraging substrate and open space.

Provide suitably sized sinking food; do not rely on leftovers.

Keep at least 6–8 in a 120 × 45 × 45 cm aquarium. Preserve foraging space and feed sinking foods directly.

Avoid predatory or aggressive feeding companions.
