Hi Chali, I think I 've seen you on tropical fish forums

Thanks Ian, That's really helpful

I've been looking at corycats.com and Google, loads of great information, but I'm a bit confused :? . I can't find any reference to C. Aeneus, C.Paleatus, C.Panda, C.Schwartzi, Brochis Britskii...all the common species. Were these scientifically classified before the C-Number system started, and ...

Thanks Ian, I've already seen your excellent website, do you know anything about the C-Numbers just marked 'Corydoras sp.'? For example,C8-10, C13 etc?

Hi everyone. I'm making a database on all the C number corys, and I would really apprieciate it if you have any info, please post it here. I've got some stuff already, but there must be loads I have missed. Thanks in advance! The specific C numbers I need information on are;
C51-54
C56
C61
C62
C63 ...

Thanks!

Thanks, Coryman. I have a spare 15 litre i can move them to for a while, so it'll be easier to see them from above.

Sorry, i should have said earlier, the corys are in with 3 C.Paleatus and guppies, and are about 11 months old

I have a group of six C.Schwartzi in my community tank, and i wondered if anybody has any tips on sexing them. Is this one of the species that shows dimorphism in the ventral fin shape? It's hard to tell with my group as they allways hide under a bank of dense planting, and i can't see the body ...

THIS TRADE IS CRUEL. If you read the letters from aquababies owners page at: http://www.aquababies.com, you realise just how misguided these people are. They could enjoy fishkeeping in a much better, more humane manner, instead of making these poor creatures lives miserable.It makes me sad and angry ...

In responce to Subedei, the L numbers for the golden nugget plec, baryancistrus sp, are L018, L081, L085 and L177. L018 lives around Altamira on thwe Rio Xingu,lower down stream is L081. L081 is sometimes called the Small spot golden nugget or Xingu orange seam pleco.L177 is found in the Rio Iriri ...

This COULD be due to the small particles of silver sand getting among the Armour plates of the corys and irritating them.Just guessing, but I saw this once when I had a flashing goldfish.under a magnifying glass, i could see the particles of sand.Just Guessing though!

I'll try that! Thanks!

I have a culture of Daphnia in a 10 litre tank, and I feed them on yeast every few days. Does anyone else keep Daphnia cultures? has anyone found a food better than yeast?

All replys would be greatly apreciated!

I had C.Paleatus (4) and C.Schwartzi (6) in a tank your size.It all depends on what else is in the tank though.....

Pleasure to help a fellow Cory keeper!

Congratulations Yann! Make sure his first fish are corys! Only joking!

Hi Olway,
Ive just started a breeding program (my first one!) with C. Paleatus,and Im conditioning them in the community tank, giving plenty of fast sinking pellets my dealer sells under their own name. fast sinking so the guppies (also in the tank) don't get them!

My Corys relish bloodworm, and ...
