Help with Cory ID's

I know what some of these are, but I want to make sure I've labeled them correctly in the "My Cats" section. (I've since added a "panda" cory.) Help? (I'm new here, so don't come at me with torches and pitchforks if I'm not doing this right!) :d

"Garfield" was labeled Orange Laser Cory.
"G-Money" was labeled Green Cory.
"White Lightning " was labeled Albino Cory.

I'm not sure about the others...

I'm not the best at this, but Zoe looks a lot like my trilineatus. Magic mike appears to have a long snout, which rules out julii for me - I'm thinking (compare your photo to this: http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/ima ... e_id=13441. On the other hand, I see that in a couple of gomezi photos (but not all), it has a pigmented forehead above the eyes; also it has relatively few keepers reported on this website. So unless your fish is kinda rare, it's probably not gomezi.

Garfield is an Orange Laser, CW010

Gmoney is Corydoras aeneus

White Lightning is Corydoras aeneus in albino form

Zoe is Corydoras trilineatus

Trouble is Corydoras paleatus.

Magic Mike is a bit harder to id and would take a much better pic to figure out. The post above is on the right track, but there are a few similar of the C lepoardus types that can be tough to tell apart, especially on my phone. I would agree that it is not likely gomezi, unless you got lucky and it was a bycatch of another species that was sent to the store you purchased these from.
