Cory Axelrodi

Post by gibbo »

Had some delivered to Fish Centre where I work as unknown corys, ID'ed them as Axelrodi. How commonly available are they in UK, anyone have any idea? Unfortunately they arrived in very poor shape and have had high mortality rate (I had first dibs on them but they've dropped like flies over last few days so I've reconsidered)!

gibbo,

C. axelrodi are not that often seen mainly due to the fact that they are not very good travelers. If you try them again add a measure of 'Liquitsil' its a general tonic from Interpet. I don't know whats in it but it is very good for settling new fish.
