What is my Cory?

Post by Fishes »

Wondering what species of Cory it is. I’ve gotten a few suggestions, but none seem quite accurate. I don’t remember what I bought them as, but got them from Aquarium Fish Depot.

Will hazard a guess at c. Elegans or a similar one in that lineage.
Corydoras, Hoplosternum, Farlowella, Pleco

Imo markings and coloration is wrong for elegans. I don’t think they are aeneus, as the markings are too high.

Looks like a female elegans to me.

Marking is kept to above the upper body, too light to be CW048.

Can compare to my female elegans
