Leucomelas? Information please.

Post by Corydoras98 »

I thought I purchased punctatus, having had new id of leucomelas I am in need of details such as; temp, if they are known to hybridise, and even though this site says unreported, if they have been bred in aquaria. Thanks

My guess would be Corydoras Brevirostris.
To my knowledge Punctatus isn't seen in the trade for years (Living in a no-catching locality in Surinam).
Lots of "spotted" Corys are sols labeled Punctatus (latin for spotted) though.

I think brevirostris too, but most have a lazer like line near their head which mine aren't currently showing?
