Hi Kev
Is he still for sale?

Hi Yann

These could be Tatia nigra which have appeared here in recent weeks. Not sure of the i'd of these fish offered here though.
Regards
Stuart

Before Siluris said what it was, i was going to suggest Eleotris vittata.

More than likely C. trilineatus, But they did look a touch like C. copei which is not a common find. Let them colour up a bit more once they are well fed and settled and we will get a better idea.
Regards
Stuart

In reply to your question, yes i have witnessed Corydoras burying eggs into sand when persued by a pact of persitent males. Of course the eggs didnt come to anything, but it was strange behaviour that i havent seen since.
Stuart

Picture 1 shows C leucomelas and the 2 other pics C delphax.

Hi Marc
I currently have Ians Danio sp. And they only reach 45mm SL. And they are constant spawners.

Stuart

hi richie
Most definatlely Napoensis. Males have a stronger pattern to them also, as well as being slimmer.

Hi all

Hi Natefrog I have repeatedly spawned Loxozonus and not by chance either, almost to order you could say. I was looking for these fish for a good fifthteen years, before i managed to get hold of a group of four fish(wild caught). They did cost me a pretty penny as they were imported from glasers in ...

Hi Andrew One possible reason for your Weitzmani to loss their colour could be substrate, if it's pale then this could be why. They do seem to develop a better colour over darker sand. Also add some leaf litter (oak or beech and catappa almond work well), this will help put them at ease and again ...

Hi Mike Male C. pygmaeus mature around that mark with them being fully grown at 25mm with females a little bit bigger and fully grown at 32mm, but i did have until recently a male at 27mm, he can be veiw on the catfish study group website in the photos for the 2005 open show third best in show ...

Hi Ryan
If you are thinking of investing, do so you won't be dissapointed. And have a look at http://www.corydorasworld.com it is a membership site although cheep. It does cover alot of the info you require.
Stuart

Try Ian fullers book Breeding corydoradinae catfish, it has a detailed account of spawning Brochis splendens with photos and line drawings of the fry.

Definately trilineatus.
stuart

C.03 for sure but yound still will develop the tall dorsal fin as they mature, but only in the males.

Definately c57'S and as far as i know and maybe ian will put me straight that microcanthus has'nt been collected yet

There is an account of the spawning of reticulatus in Ian(corymans)fullers book on the subject, but unfortunatly this is currently out of print but you could find a copy if you search hard enough. alternately try Ians new site http://www.corydorasworld.com

They are'nt that common, but you can pick them up from time to time. As for the price they were good value i think. And they are very "easy" to spawn.

Definately duplicareus danding is too broad to be adolphoi even allowing for some variability. Very good specimens anyway.

either species are not that common, so at £9.00 they are'nt that exspensive

exactly what you have named it the bandit cory, Corydoras metae

Corydoras zygatus. if you look at the dark band it has a slight break just below the dorsal fin, this can help id the two similar species.

Yep i think you are right with Schizolecis guntheri. was'nt so clear until the pics are side by side.

Hi Adrian
The guntheri are close, but it still could be Hisonotus leucofrenatus i think.

Stuart

A the moment mark we turn up and the judges belive our honesty. cheats do stand out a mile usually . And why cheat you only cheat yourself i think. Have you got something coming along? it would be nice for more breeders to exhibit there achievements at the open show, and there is a master breeders ...

there are lots of new brachys coming through at the mo. but i do think that there are cf meesi around

Hi Mark This seems to be one of Ians favourite subjects at the moment. He really wants to set up a breeders award scheme, and has a few ideas on how it should be done, and there was a lengthy discussion on a thread in another forum awhile back. i don't think anything like this is set up yet only a ...

the size comes from the fnas show guide for Sturisomaticthys leightoni and as Lg6 maybe a new Sturisomaticthys this is the as close as i can give you
all the best
stuart

lg6 are closley related to sturisomaticthys and get to about 115mm sl but try this if you can read german.
