Description
False Julii corys usually have more of a reticulated pattern above the horizontal stripe than true Julii Corys. Sometimes they will have spots, but will be slightly larger spots and more spaced out. Because the 2 look so similar, C. trilineatus became known as False Julii Corys, but are commonly marked as Julii Corys in the hobby. They do like to have places to hide for when it needs relief from the light. They also like a well planted environment and a smooth sand or gravel substrate because of their fragile barbels. They like being in a small group of 4 or more, and when feeding them you are in for a energetic dance that will be fun to watch each time.
