Hello everyone, I have been silent on PC for a while now, today I have an I.D question.
I received these from a wholesaler as "Corydoras Puncatatus".
Any ideas on a more proper I.D?
Not the best with corys

Thanks!

Hi Sean,

Do you have photos of them with their dorsal fin flared? To me, these look like very young , or a similar C/CW number.

Cheers,
Eric

Brochis(sc3) agassizii

, or a similar C/CW number.

This is the photo from the supplier, I will try to get some better ones this evening

Agassizii is a pretty common species in the hobby in the USA, so if you do buy them, don't pay too much - They typically sell for about $7-$10 USD each on the West Coast, unless you're getting fish from some specific source (e.g., some importer/retailer pages will have nice large "Corydoras sp. XYZ Rio Name goes here" for about $20-$25 each, and knowing the source may be worth the cost, but otherwise, I don't think so).

Cheers,
Eric
