Blue/green Cory's

[xamy_valox]

Hi there,
I am going to be upgrading my tank from a 23 litre to a 70 litre and I am planning on including a couple of Corys.
When in my LFS the other day I saw a lovely cory, quite small, a shiny blue colour, with black speckles. Does anyone have any idea which kind this may be?
If I saw to see a picture I would know, but google is proving useless =\
However I do also like the look of the Sterbai type. How big do they grow and could I mix one of these with one of the blue colour ones?
Thanks, Amy.

Similar but a much more noticeable blue, wheras they look more silvery?

Sometimes different lighting makes them appear different. Im not an expert so other thank that Im not to sure. The peppers are quite common in most lfs.

have a look on here, a long list but I found one I was looking for before by looking through it

Thats great thanks, I'll have a rummage through and see if I can find it.
It may well be the peppered cory, it just seemed different when I saw it in the shop!
Thanks for your help though.
Amy.

whatever it is you can't have just 1 of each. you will need a group of at least 6 which means you can only have the 1 type

Yes, minimum of 6 for each cory species.
