Hey,
I would like to say this at first; I'm not so good at English, so forgive me if I'd spell anything wrong :oops: :wink:

Secondly, I've recently bought some Corydoras Albino from a store, but when I ask them what kind of Albino it is, they don't know. I know this is really strange, because at least the boss would know what kind of Albinos he is selling. But I'm really busy right now and I haven't any time to go back to the store to ask them again. So I made pictures of my Albinos and maybe do you guys have some idea what kind this is??

Hello,

Looks like a C. aeneus. They're very common on this side of the pond.

Hello,

It's hard to judge a corys age based upon size. You didn't mention whenther the lenghth included the caudal, so it could be as young as 3 months. Anything else will be older than that depending upon how well it has been taken care of.

Oh sorry I didn't mentioned that, the 3 centimeters is including the caudal. But I don't know how well they were taking care of, 'cause I just bought them 2 weeks ago.
