Hi
I was wondering how common or uncommon are the black c.aeneus and do they breed in the same manner.
Thanks Les

The C. aeneus 'Blacks' do breed true, and in typical Cory fashion. They were originally bred in the Czech Republic. I have a group that breed quite regularly and only occasionaly do I get one that is not black but a dark reddish brown.

Hi!
Ian I did not know that these were commonly breed in Czech republic, I have been looking for some for ages and never been able to find any, I shall ask the shop around here as all of them order there, still I have been looking at numerous stocklist from there and never encountered any of these!
Thanks for the info!!!
Cheers

Yann,
There are a number of people that are breeding these here in the UK, they are not very difficult.

Do you know of anyone breeding them in Canada or even the U.S. I would really like to get some . Your LFS seem to carry alot more of the uncommon corys then ours do..
Thanks for your time
