The Sterba's Cory is a small bottom-dwelling fish with a body covered in bony plates. It lives in the rivers of South America and is often found in aquariums.
Sterba's armored catfish is distinguished from related species by dense white dots on its dark body. It cleans the river bottoms of debris and serves as food for large fish.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
May lead to death within 14–60 days after onset.
Describes the act of excavating soil or substrate to locate or access food.
