and the plec is going to be harder to ID, does it have any other distinguising features?

 

[619 Fish GOD]

Nope,Its not a panda cory

No distugusted fetures on the plec

 

[Paul_MTS]

ok then....

where is the black wedge on the cory? how big are they?

what size is the 'plec' are the spots all over? are they really bright yellow, or dull and mottled? does it look very spikey?

or can you post up some pictures?

 

[619 Fish GOD]

Firstly,The triangle is in the bottom half of the cory

Secondly,I don't know who to post pic on here let alone download pics

Thirdly,The spottes are dull and he has a spiky "Top Fin"

Forthly,Thanks in advnce for all your help

I think the cory is not a cory but rather Brochis Splendens.
As With the plec its still a myestry...................

Corydoras Melanotaenia is the cory scientific name
