Corydoras Melanotaenia

Post by gibbo »

Anyone ever come across these... seems we got a shipment in that was meant to be 10 Brochis Britski but got one, what seems to be 7 c. melanotaenia and 3 c. agassazii.

Very much like a bronze cory but with really yellow fins. Any thoughts?

They're going out at £5.75 each, is that a fair price (we obviously thought we were getting 10 Brochis, and were charged for 10 Brochis.... should I complain to wholesaler Ian?) What would you do? :?
