The Albino Sterba's Cory Catfish is a very striking color morph that still has the spotting and orange fin coloration at maturity!
The Albino Sterba's Cory Catfish (Corydoras sterbai) is an uncommon variant of a very popular species. As an adult, it displays spotting and orange pectoral fins much like the nominal version of its species, the the original black and white is replaced with pink and yellow hues. Much like its cousin, the Peppered Cory (Corydoras paleatus), this catfish exhibits very interesting and often playful behavior. It is fairly small (they grow to a maximum of about 2-1/2 inches), so it is ideal for the home aquarium.
