Hi,

I found a group of cory on October. Sold as . It rapidly appears for me that it was a group of youngs . Some of them have the 2 strips they really look like C. arcuatus. At the same tine, 6 of them still smaller, their head is not exaclty the same (more rounded), their coloration is different.
Today, I saw that (Sorry, I used to take my own pictures).

I will take some pics of my group this evening.

A+

I hope you did not overpay. C evelinae are very sought after, and thus every expensive

50 euros, or 73 US dollars, is a price C evelinae can cost, or even more. I never heard of any other Cory costing that much

These fish are straight forward juvenile C. arcuatus. When they were first discovered they were thought of as a new dwarf species and given the code C20 and like many species they fairly slow growing and develop at varying rates.

hi Ian,

Should I keep them with "true" C. arcuatus?
Since these pictures, they still have the same coloration, they did not grow up as well as C. arcuatus.

thank's for your reply
