Have I Cory Julii Or Cory Trilineatus

[Harlequins]

I wonder if someone could help with id,i have tried to make a difference with my corys but still not sure,they're silvery grey,with a greenish tinge by their gills,what throws me is 2 are almost identicle in patterning and one is smaller and lighter in colour with more spots on forehead,i've taken endless photos which aren't brilliant as the little so n so's won't keep still,here's the best 2 pics...

Hi Harlequins

I'm pretty sure you have C. trilineatus. Check this out for a comparison:

They are C. trilineatus. Finally, after an almost 10 year search, I have obtained "true" C. julii. Once you see them there is no confusion at all. There is not one bit of reticulation. Just fine spotting with a barely visible lateral line.. I cannot tell you how thrilled I am to have finally acquired these fish. I was afraid I was going to go my whole life without ever seeing them.

Pictures? Yeah, sure. As soon as I get a spare moment - sometime in December. lol. - Frank
