I think they are Haralds because the nose looks longer . If they are , keep hold of them as they are rare  .
 
 
I think this is the correct diagnosis.  
 
They are sterbai in my opinion. Sterbai have white dots on the head, where the similar species pointed here have rather black dots on the head. That's the main difference from what I can recall from the back of my head.
 
Sterbai corys, as any other corys will be lighter colour on lighter substrate, nothing strange with that. My corys signifficantly change colours on different bottom. Plus, they'll pale out of they are just purchased and need to adjust.
 
Look at the difference on the head:

thanks for all the ids...im thinking the sterbai cos of the yellow feetfin....will have to wait to they are older and longer... 
are the top of the heads different or is it just the pictures cos the top pic looks like the head to mouth is flatter.
ill have a really good look 2moz and look at the spots and c wot color they are..:)
 
Look at the markings on the head. Sterbai look like they have white dots on dark background where haraldschultzi have black dots on white background.
 
Its a tough call...  Those two are often confused with each other.
 
Look like Sterbai to me, the paleness could be due to a lower water temp or just cause they're younger on a light sub.
 
Think you are right Khalil. Haraldschultzi has dark spots on lighter background, Sterbay it's the other way around.
These have light spots on the head, so it must be Sterbai.
 
THEY ARE.........DRUM ROLL PLEASE....................................................STERBAI!
