If there is a need for better pics of this species for the site, I'd be happy to take and submit some better ones after the fish settle in. If so let me know.

Thanks Yann! Do you know any more about them? Anything different than the profile here? Where would I find the "normal" pics?

Thanks for the input. It's close but markings don't look the same to me. Maybe a variant? At any rate I'm happy with them so far and may just get a few more. Thanks again!

These were with a load of "pitbull plecos" at my LFS. The ranged from 1-2" and I bought two of the larger ones for now. I've had a look at the parotocinclus species and don't see a match. Nearest to my eye is the p. haroldoi. Does it look familiar to anyone? Thanks!

Thanks Mats, I hadn't found that search window.Thanks all for suggestions. The Panda garra look really interesting but I haven't yet seen them available. I'm working an a small rivertank for hillstreams, they may fit well there? Something to keep an eye out for.
I went to a local aquarium society ...

Thanks for your replies! I'll check out that search feature Julie.

I'm in Bellingham Unca. Where are you? Will you be gong to the GSAS auction tomorrow? Maybe see ya there??
Thanks again!

Hi all,
I started with a spotted sailfin pleco in my 29, he was beautiful and did an amazing job of keeping the tank clean! But of course within 3 months he outgrew the tank an I recently found him a nice new home. I bought 3 otos to replace him( will get a few more)but they just don't do the same ...

Thanks for the help! I had looked through the pics of the C.Aeneus but didn't find any with the hi fin like that so I thought it may be something different. There are so many variations!

Hi folks, this is my first post, I'm a newbie and newly infatuated with Corydoras. I happened to be at walmart today and found these in the assorted cory tank. I NEVER buy fish at Walmart but fell for the one with the hi-fin so I bought a pal for him/her also. This was the only one with the hi-fin ...
