The Albino Corydoras is a Bronze Corydoras variety that has progressed through the aquarium trade. They usually have a pale pink body and red eyes. Because these Albino corydoras are produced exclusively for the commercial ornamental fish trade, they are usually injected with a brilliant red dye, rendering them blind. Corydoras is a genus of freshwater catfish belonging to the Callichthyidae family and the Corydoradinae subfamily. Corydoras are little fish that range in size from 21 to 100mm in length, with an average of 57mm. They can defend themselves against predators thanks to their unique ability to use their body armour scales and sharp, commonly deadly spines. In addition, the Corydoras have the ability to self-poison when threatened, which is a typical feature of many Cory species. This allows them to discharge deadly mucus from their gills, causing nearby fish to perish quickly. Self-poisoning puts the Corydoras under a lot of stress, and it often leads to death. In Bronze Corydoras and Albino Corydoras, this research focuses on the process of self-poisoning and how it can be reversed. The goal of this research is to educate marine biologists and aquarium hobbyists about possible reversing mechanisms that could save many Corydoras' lives.
