Hi, I'm searching the United States for Long finned corydoras. I would like to buy a small group, but have not been able to find any breeders. I would appreciate any contacts you might have. Thanks a bunch.

I have seen the selectively bred long finned mutation of Cordoras panda offered occasionally by www.coryrus.com
They are the only long finned varieties I know of not counting the naturally occurring Scleromastyx spp that looks very like a longer finned Corydoras paleatus.

Before you order with anyone online, I've found it helpful to check out their Aquabid postings. Coryrus does not quite have a good feedback, and while I've been very tempted to order from him, the complaints and warnings I've heard turn me away. I have found some good sellers of longfin paletus on AB (Wetspotx is one, I believe), and if you are looking for longfin pandas, check out azaquaticplants.com---yes, it is a plant website, but polardbear, one of the mods there, breeds long fin pandas, among other interesting cories, for very good prices.
