About the Gold Laser Corydoras

Discover the vibrancy of the Amazon with our tank-raised Gold Laser Corydoras. Originating from Peru, this rare and undescribed Corydoras species brings a splash of color to any aquarium. Known for its striking metallic green body adorned with a neon yellow stripe, the Gold Laser Cory Catfish (also known as the Gold Stripe Cory Catfish) is a gem among freshwater species. Its lively nature and distinctive markings make it a prized addition for nano, community, and planted tanks alike.

Despite being new to the aquarium scene, the Gold Laser Corydoras has captured the hearts of enthusiasts worldwide. Believed by some to be a color variant of Corydoras aeneus or C. melanataenia, its exact classification remains a topic of fascination.
