Cory ID

[The Masked Shadow]

Take a gander at the planetcatfish site.

Idk either. It wasn’t letting me sign in.

Not elegans or aeneus to me. Actually think they look like either Cw048 or Cw068.

I’ve been getting mixed information on the catfish. I need a clearer picture.

This is what I’ve been suggested:

-Elegans (C. Elegans)
-CW068
-Rust (C. Raubati)
-Bronze (C. Aeneus)
- Black Band Cory (C. Zygatus)

Do any of these ring a bell?

Could It be a C number in the Elegans group?

I am not one of the real Cory experts but In my opinion:-
Not zygatus as the black patch on those stays well above the lateral line and yours drops below between pectoral and dorsal.
Not ran auto for the same reasoning as above.
Not aeneus as your fish has markings too high generally (above the lateral line and reaching too close to the dorsal fin). Aeneus has markings covering the lateral line and stoping well clear of the dorsal.
Not elegans as the markings and coloration is wrong even though elegans can be quite variable, would also expect that you don’t have all females (to be that colour).
As mentioned Cw068 and Cw048 are both options as also is the potential for one of the other many similar types or yet unnumbered types.

Thanks for your help.

Definitely not aeneus.

 

[Fishman Dave]

Agreed, but not Cw048 or Cw068 but would from these photos go back and say elegans or Cw064.

Where did you get the corys from?

Trying to identify corydoras sitting on black ground can be quite misleading.

Aquarium Fish Depot. They have so many different rare types.

Trying to identify corydoras sitting on black ground can be quite misleading.

The substrate is black on the sides and white in the middle.
