dyed cory or not?

[The-Wolf]

hi all
we have just recieved some cories in at work
labled fluorescent green and fluorescent gold
are these a natural species or have they been dyed?

my shop has signed up to pfks anti-dyed fish campaign, so I'm hoping they are not, but I can't find any english websites about them.

btw w have albino fireheads in too, guess what I'm bringing home tonight.
go to go the boss is comming.

What do they look like? Generally corys are dyed with stripes. Theres natural green ones, and I think gold possibly too, ask inch as she's got green (i think).

WoW ! Could they be the (natural) laser green and laser gold cories ?
If so, they are not dyed, but natural - and expensive !
How much are yours going for ?

You might find this Planetcatfish article interesting !

And this Scotcat article gives some examples (bottom left).

There was another topic on this a couple of days ago. Someone said his LFS had some lazer green cories and they were $21.99 US dollars a piece I think...

Nope afraid not - but trust me, in most cases I wish we could - stuff is generally sooooo much cheaper in the good old US of A

Not bad - very tempted..... they will probably go fairly quickly I would have thought.
