Hello,

I think that I've found close matches for these on various sites. Most grateful of definite confirmation, though.

Thanks

These are two different species, the first is C. trilineatus and I'd guess at C. ambiacus for the second one but it's tough with such a young fish.

I agree with Jools. First one is Corydoras trilineatus. Second one is probably Corydoras ambiacus... but the half spotted dorsal fin is not common to this species... :roll:

The first fish is C. trilineatus, but the second is not C. ambiacus, it could be a juvenile C18
