Not C. agassizii Please ID

Post by Plecofanatic1989 »

I bought this Cory under the name Agassizi Cory. There was only one and it is clearly not C. agassizii. Can anyone ID so I don't have to search the 278 Corydoras spp. on the site?

The species is C. sodalis, this is something that is becoming rather annoying as whoever labelled this fish as C. agassizii, clearly has never seen the real thing.

Well I asked him about it and he said he knew it wasn't C. agassizii, but wasn't sure what it was. He got it from the distributer as agassizii, so labeled it that way.
Thank you Ian
