Sexing Cory's

[tenke56]

I currently have 1 Albino Cory and 1 Emerald Cory. I am looking at possibly getting a few more of each but am wondering if there is any way to sex them. My current cory's are at least 2 years old, being that I have had them that long.

Usually it can be done when they're well conditioned. The females are fatter and, when looked down at, wider. Oh, and you will want more corys depending on the size of your tank.

It is a 55 gallon tank and I was going to add 1-2 more of each type. I am pretty sure that I have 2 males from studying them. They are thin when looked at from above. Thanks for the reply.
