Figure_8 Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 I spent quite a few hours oogling corys today. I'm quite positive that most of them were misnamed in the lfs though. Then again so many corys look so similar to me that I have trouble telling them apart! is the C.schwartzi really silverish and black? I would really love some like that!!

KillieOrCory Posted October 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Here is another shot of schwartzii it is a bit over exposed though! By the way, you are right in terms of id of cories at the shops. QUite often you'll find they are misidentified. Sometimes through the wholesaler (I once ordered a dozen schwartzii and they turned up and they were leucomelas!) and sometimes they get confused at the shops. Which is fine by me I like doing detective work to figure out what is on offer. I got 5 books on cories and there are many good resources on the net too. Ian Fuller is a legend. If anybody wants to order his books let me know we'll do a combined order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
