Hi,
Could anyone help me identify this cory? I purchased him from my LFS, which classed him as "assorted corydoras". He was the only one there so I bought him home.

sychri luminoso, is in most cases , but I`m not saying that your fish is that specie.

Which lfs did you get him from? From this end it would help to know which wholesale that shop deals through. I still have most of the wholesale lists available when we had the shop so I might be able to dig a little deeper on the supplier side of things for you.

Hi,
He was brought in by a customer that was getting out of fish. I got him from a petshop in Thornton, NSW. He looks alot like the Corydoras melanistius. Thankyou everyone for all of your help,
