Skunk Cory

Hey all I'm looking for info on some cory's we bought listed as Skunk Cories. They are all light colored with two long black tripes on them. One on each side that run high on the body the length of the fish. The LFS here did not have a scientific name for them. We bought five and lost one pretty quick. Any info would help. Its actually for my Dad. I'm up in Fargo visiting and he has a good size collection going. Personally I picked up five nice sized Scwartz cories that are decent sized. I found them in the catelog but I am looking for any additional info on them. Thanks.

Thanks for the help. They are the C. Arcuatus. Has anyone had these? we're looking fr info and the catelog doesn't say much. The other four made it through the night so we think they'll be ok now. Thanks again.

Thanks again for the help. I don't think my Dad will attempt breeding(though I may snitch them on a trip up there and give it a whirl in my setup. Wish he would he has some gorgeous fish. I have Schwartzis and bronze cories so I'm hoping something will happen. Thanks again for the info I'll pass it on to my Dad.
