Looks like an elegans to me, but has no spots on his fins...

It certainly looks like a Elegans, you can just see the marks on the dorsal fins starting. Is it a juvinle?

I bought him at the fish store as a julii cory, though I knew at the first sight he wasn't a julii (and their other "julii" were in fact C. Gomezi :) ). He's much smaller than my old cories, so I'd say he is a juvenile. If the fin spots appear later, that would explain a lot. Thanks for your answer :)
