Corydoras trilineatus and C. leopardus ?

Post by t-hak »

I got few weeks ago group of wild caught corys labelled as C. trilineatus (locality unknown). There was one long nose in group too. I planned to breed these new with my old ones (the old corys are tank bred), but now i'm unsure, because the coloration is so different. What do you experts think of an id and should i avoid mixing these (short nosed) variants? Here's the bigger pictures.
