Cory catfish are not completely scaleless, but they do have very small, reduced scales that are often not visible. Instead of scales, their skin is covered in a layer of mucus, which helps protect them in their natural habitat. This lack of prominent scales is characteristic of many catfish species, allowing them to thrive in various aquatic environments.
