I bought these as C adolfi for £6 each but the more i look at them and thebigger they get they less convinced i am. They look more like duplicareus to me. Can anyone put my mind at rest





Sorry about the poor quality photos

Definately duplicareus danding is too broad to be adolphoi even allowing for some variability. Very good specimens anyway.

Im glad you agree, I also agree that they are stunning little cories. I wasnt sure that they were adolfi when I bought them but I liked them anyway. Are they rarer than adolfi and was it a good price?

They are'nt that common, but you can pick them up from time to time. As for the price they were good value i think. And they are very "easy" to spawn.

I think they look like duplicareus too...they are too robust to be adolfoi in my opinion.

Yes, they are quite easy...I had my group of 8 for a year before eggs started to appear. Now they produce 25-35 eggs every tenth day or so.

I keep them at 25-26 degrees celcius in a 35 litre tank. The water is rainwater, so it's soft/a bit acidic (I don't measure my water parameters, so I can't give you any).

I do a 50% waterchange once a week.

I have six at the moment but i know the shop has more, I have them in a four foot growing tank with some C panda C axelrodi and a group of C trilineatus. I may get a few more if they are not too common. Thanks for the replies
