What might this be?

Post by benny »

Hi guys,

Got this recently.

Suspected it to be Corydoras elisae, but can't be sure. It certainly has baring on the dosal and caudal fins, abeit a bit faint.

Anyone?

Cheers,

Hi Benny. Just my Guess. Looks like a variation of the Corydoras armatus.

C. armatus is not a snouted species, I think it is nearer to C. stenocephalus, albeit somewhat washed out.
