Not brevirostris... The nose is too long. In fact, the name brevirostris means short snout (brevi + rostris).

Corydoras delphax

Thanks Dave

On closer look, I agree with you. But the dorsal fin higher appears in my. I have these 30 fish bought from the dealer as WF
(WF = German Wlidfang) so import. I do not know the English word . I got him as high-dorsal corydoras (freely translated). The Latin names he called me I forgot.

I now correct in "My Fish"

Thanks again

Greeting Ralf .... and sorry ... english ..... the school is already over forty years ago

Hi Ralf,

Regarding the size of the dorsal fin in your fish being taller, look at photos #2 and #7 on the species page ("CLOG" page) for delphax:

Photo #2: http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/ima ... age_id=719

Photo #7: http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/ima ... age_id=719

Both of the fish pictured have higher fins than seen in the other photos. Obviously the height of the dorsal fin varies between species of Corydoras, but even within each high-finned species, the height of the fin also varies with age and sometimes with gender.

Cheers, Eric

Also, your German word "Wildfang" translates into the English words "Wild caught," which is usually abbreviated as WC.

Hello Eric,

I'll show you in the next days still photos of some other fish from this group. Some are darker or lighter, with some dark spots are more in a line, with some rather messed up ..... it remains exciting I'm not quite sure look to C010. I am absolutely not sure if this is to site variations

Regards Ralf
