Help Sexing Cories

I figured it out doing some research. I have also been looking at the anal fin. I have 3 females, 4 males

It matters less about their stomachs hanging down than about them being rounded on the sides.

In this picture, the male is on top and the female on the bottom. If you look at them from above, you can readily see the difference.

Yeah,I know now that I have 4 males, 3 females. They have already been breeding, although I have yet to save an eggs

Good for you, Dieses Madchen.

I hope to see you soon posting about a batch of egg you have saved. Good luck to you.

Thank you inchworm. I hope so too, but they are very quick to eat them

I got my first 3 corys today and i can now see why everyone loves them, 2 stick together whereas the other sort of does his own thing :unsure:

it would be easier to figure out my corys sex if they would stay still lol
