Those are c. pygmaeus. I have kept and spawned them in the past and are very easy to keep and breed. Good luck with them!!! Here's a link to Planet Catfish profile of c. pygmaeus for your ID confirmation.... http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species_id=283

All the dwarf corys (pygmaeus, habrosus and hastatus) are very easy to spawn and for the most part do not eat the eggs or fry.

they are actually corydoras leucomelas.

looks more like a Corydoras duplicareus

those corys sure seem to keep you busy collecting eggs..

so.. did u get them??

my only concern with that tank and all the breeding going on in there is with the dups and panda's crossing while going into their group spawning. those two species will easily cross, the gossei on the other hand should be fine in there though without any problems.

they shouldn't be any harder to spawn then the others in your collection that you are spawning regularily.. I recommend going right back there and getting as many as you can.. they are a great fish and I am still looking for some on my end here without any luck.

actually not to burst your bubble, but you picked a cory that is one of the harder species to spawn and I bet i can count on one hand how many people I know who have spawned them with several fingers to spare. not that it can't happen, it just will be quite a bit harder then alot of other...

yes, it is a habrosus

you can tell right from the get go that they were not fertile by the white dot within the eggs. fertile eggs do not have this dot and are more of a tan color. you can usually see the embryo in the eggs when they are fertile right from the start

I agree with frank.. they are metae.. nice looking fish

quite the order you placed.. nice work!!!!!

those sound like snail eggs to me

my first thought when seeing it was also leucomelas

sounds like you have a real sterbai factory going on there.. good luck with raising out all those little guys

lol.. I know what they look like.. I have 5 of them myself.. I just always like to compare fish and see what others look like.

congrats on the new spawning.. any chance you can take some pics of the parents?

those aldolfoi look like duplicareus to me.. but then again you would have to look closely at their pectoral fins for a positive ID according to Ian

I have never heard of that name before.. I assume it is just another made up name by the suppliers to drum up sales. The only way you will be able to get a positive id is from posting a pic of the fish

Most likely both of you have Corydoras trilineatus and not true Corydoras julii as they are very rare in the hobby and trilineatus are most commonly mislabeled as julii

congrats on the new spawn.. the pics were great!!! :hyper: and that female is HUGE!!!

sounds like those pandas are doing quite well for you.. congrats

she looks good to me.. actually quite healthy and ready to spawn

I would pick habrosus out of the three

thanks Frank..

your first cory is actually a corydoras trilineatus as well

they are C. elegans

are the pics ready yet??? :angel:

great pics.. I love those loxozonus in the top pics swimming high above everyone

they are just your every day common corydoras aeneus.. no varient.. just as i mentioned above. this is one of the most commonly sold corys, the trade name for it is bronze cory.

wow.. that's all I can say Frank... is.. wow.. awesome pic once again... you seem to never disapoint when you get your camera out

i agree.. not allowed to post you have new corys without pics.. can't wait to see the new ones.

they are corydoras aeneus

Mine are: 1) C. loxozonus 2) C. oiapoquensis 3) C. burgessi 4) C. gossei 5) C. aeneus sp. green laser

c. habrosus... just because they look more like the body shape of a cory.. just smaller. all personal preference i guess

I have kept both corydoras pygmaeus and corydoras habrosus in 5 gallon tanks and they have spawned readily for me in there. I do not have any experience keeping bettas and corys though.. someone else might have to chime in on that part of it.

Nice pic Frank... I will be sitting here patiently waiting for the pics of the corys in the photo tank... :whistle:

congrats on all the new spawnings Frank!!

I agree ;)
