I don't know if anyone's told you yet but . . . c. barbatus was later re-classified as s. barbatus, and they are actually territorial fish. Males will be aggressive to each other, and may even kill each other with the spines hidden close to the head.

They look pretty small (same size as your albinos). They'll grow to be well over 4 inches, probably even exceed 5 (like 12 cm approx), and the immature fish are the same coloration as females, so you can't rally tell until they're older (and bigger)-- not that their immaturity means that the males will behave. :/

I'm sure you have the facilities to accomidate them, I'm just telling you so you won't assume they're perfect citizens like corydoras cats are . . . because, they are not cories after all.

We went by the information in the Aqualog book All Coradoras which shows pictures of males, females & juveniles. Ours look like the females and nothing like the very different males or the juvenilles, so I'm 99% certain that they are all girls. (Aqualog also still calls them coradoras)

At the moment they're about 8cm (3 inches) long, Aqualog list them as having an average adult size of 12cm (4.5 inches)

Thanks for the compliments, it's a Kodak DX6490 4mp digital camera on sports macro mode with flash.
 
Wow at your fish and just been on your website and all i can say is :wub:

Me and my boyfriend are really jealous of your Chacas we really wanted on but were put off by the fact that they are meant to be quite hard to feed so we bought a banjo catfish and a midnight catfish instead. I think we are like you with the catfish can't resist them!!
