Species of my albinos corydoras

Post by kiwidu21 »

Hello,
I have for 5 years, a small group of albino Corydoras that I breed. I always thought they were Corydoras aeneus albino but could you give me confirmation please?

The corys in question:

They are the common
Corydoras(ln7) aeneus
Albino as you suspected

The other form of 'albino cory' that can be found in our LFS have a longer spine to the dorsal fin and are more blue in hue.
Corydoras(ln6) paleatus

Thanks for your confirmation.
I preferred to be sure of the species before selling the little ones.
