The sterbais where very hard to photograph they moved very quickly and they are somewhat small i think.

Here is my attempt at sexing them

I circled the females

Here are my attempts at sexing the Paleatus and Sterbai I circled the females

Here are the rest of the pics

Hello all, hope you are all having a nice weekend :)

I have pictures of my corys here and I need help Sexing them.

I have 8 Corydoras Paleatus + 3

I have 6 Corydoras Sterbai

I just bought 3 new Paleatus and the salesman seemed adamant they were males. I personally think they were too small to ...

....
UPDATE: I had 51 eggs yesterday morning and only 44 when i got back in the late evening. Maybe i spoke too soon about the otocinclus not eating eggs. But then again maybe they had fungus and ether the otos ate them or the RCS did. If i catch them in the act i'll be sure to post it here :-BD ...

With both heated and unheated tanks they start warming back up immediately. With the unheated tanks, room temp slowly raises the temp back up. With the heated tanks, I leave the heater on when I do cool water changes.

Thanks for all your help. I'll make changes to my setup and keep posting ...

There are gold spotted commons, but they're not a stripy fish AFAIK.
I wouldn't put much trust in a stock list that lists assassin snails under the heading 'Amphibians'...

Haha thanks for the info.

Ancistrus temminckii is the picture i posted i guess ...

My corry tanks are mostly unheated. At 25.4 celsius you are running warmer then I keep mine, My tank tempature for C paleatus, were between 20 and 22 degrees celsius. The exception would be my Coridorus sterbai which I kept at 28 degrees. For the tanks at room temp I left the room temp warm them ...

I went back today after work and I still couldn't find the ones they received labelled golden stripe pleco... they let me take a picture of there list of shipping. Could they be talking about the regular common pleco with gold stripes ?


Thanks again guys

Thanks for the comments. It's greatly appreciated and you have a very vast knowledge.

When you use cooler water during water change to you let it drop a certain amount of time or a set amount of degrees before you turn the heater back up ?

When my paleatus spawned the tank temp was 25.4C and there ...

Quick update.

My Corydoras Paleatus have spawn and after careful examination i think only 1 or 2 of my females participated. I had to take the corys out of the tank after the spawn was over since they had already started to eat the eggs. They spawned wednesday. The eggs haven't changed color yet ...

Thanks for the help it's greatly appreciated. It's a shame they don't keep the white at the end of the fin.... it's what i like the most out of them.

. The white edges fade with age.

Wow really ? I didnt see any bristles would that simply be because of their age or because they are females ?

Thanks for the quick response.

Went to my LFS looking for clow pleco and they had these instead.

End of the fins seem to have white on them.

Thanks, in advance

They seemed very territorial against each other if that helps

Thanks. I only wish I had a bigger tank to house this beautiful creature.

Is this just another common pleco ?

Thanks guys. I'm probably going to buy a new tank this summer and use this one to breed or grow out plants. maybe a koi tank

I'm just wondering what size to go with.

So they came in the same shipment? Where were they imported from, what name were they sold as, and what other species came in that same shipment?

Exported from Colombia. Labelled L306

Racoll do you have an ID for this mislabeled L306 with the new pictures provided ?

That´s Panaqolus sp. aff. maccus.

Sandor will know better than me, and I can't disagree with his ID, but I'm not sure whether he means LDA068 or something else when he says "aff. maccus ".

I wrote "panaqolus ...

I'm looking for Canadian sellers/importer/breeders

Any and all fish or fish accessories.

Post here with what you have. No need for prices if you are shy about those things.


Thank you

I thought i would only apply to the United States....not Canada.

They are illegal to export from Brazil, and they are in a remote area that is seldom collected for the ornamental trade. Why would these facts apply only to the USA?


there was some confusion on the other thread about them being ...

Who knew it'd be so hard to get the L306 I wanted

Er ... you were told that several times in your other thread .

I thought i would only apply to the United States....not Canada.

And in my defense a seller contacted me because of that other thread how was i suppose to know there L306 were ...

Hi,

Well now i'm lost....It tail really is red. Although i doubt it's a L306

That´s Panaqolus sp. aff. maccus. No L306 (and also no reason to suspect it to be a hybrid).

Cheers,
Sandor


The reason i thought it might be a hybrid is because the head is LDA068 and the fins being red remind me ...

wow thats amazing if they do it again. use your phone or camera to film it

Wow your fish room is very impressive. If you lived around here i'd be really honored to take a look around your shop.

Are you a fish breeder or own a Fish store ?

How do you remove the un-eaten food ?


The day before yesterday i noticed a few females with the fins in a cup shape after i did a ...

Hi all - This is my first post - I hope someone can help.

I recently acquired some corys - pictures below. They were sold to me as Corydoras paleatus but they are quite large (2.5-3.0 inches) and the males have long dorsal and pectoral fins and very elongated bodies. I think they might be ...

This could be sold as LDA068 , but you could also call it Panaqolus maccus . Either way it's a common fish and not LDA064 or L306. It will get less colourful with age.

Hi,

just on a side note:
I am really kind of confused by your question. Multiple people have both told you now that these fish are the same species (as is L169).

L169 and L306 are clearly (and easily) differentiated, at least as adult(ish) specimen.
If they are the same "species" or not I will ...

The fish from the seller is Panaqolus maccus , AKA the common clown pleco.

Could they be LDA068

at this point him 90% sure the picture I received are not of the L306 but I have a panaqolus maccus in my community tank and it looks a little different than the sellers.

Thanks for all the help ...
