What Kind Of Cories Do I Have?

[Liberty802]

I bought these 3 cories at my local LFS, they were labled as M. Corydoras. I absolutly love them, the lfs hasn't had any since. I don't know what kind they are, and I wanted to know so I could hopefully find them somewhere else. Here are a couple pictures.

I've looked on there before, not there, lol. They're a mystery, I can't find them anywhere, lol.

Looks like C. reticulatus to me:

Or it could be C. sodalis:

Its kind of hard to tell. You can always look at these and see if you can find it:

Hi Liberty802

They are some nice healthy looking corys you have there! My guess is that they're C. reticulatus.

What part of New York do you live in? Long Island, by any chance?

Yep! I think you guys nailed it! C.reticulatus

They are really cuties, Liberty!

Your LFS is really muddled. True Cories are Corydoras reticulatus--C.reticulatus never start with anything other than C.something .

Hope you find more sometime.
