Are these green or gold laser corydoras?
Are these green or gold laser corydoras?
All were sold to me as gold laser, but the group from one LFS have a different tint to the other. Or are they all gold laser and just two different breeding lines?
Group 1 (? Green laser) are the larger ones, in the group on the right below. Also attached a video of the ? Green lasers and a solo photo.

If they are two different types, is that a problem? Would anyone in the North West area swap greens for golds?!
Thanks hugely in advance!

I think there is a mixture of both - five of each. In the picture with the rummy noses, I can see four gold stripes on the left and one top right with the remainder, grouped together in a near circle, being green.

Re: Are these green or gold laser corydoras?
Thanks Jools - yes, you've exactly identified the ones from the two different groups!
I think I will look to sell the green lasers, as the LFS I got them from isn't the sort to admit they have got something wrong. Much as I like them, I really wanted a school of just one single type and would worry that they would hybridize when they breed, which I understand isn't ideal. I only have one tank so splitting them isn't an option.
