Heya,

Sorry about the pics, they are with my webcam and arent very good.

The Baderi look similar, but mine has more than just one stripe and then the coloring on the forehead. Mine doesnt have any spots, just the stripes too!

Thanks for the help.

Hiya :)

the actual markings in your photo are not very clear
but if you have a look in the topic given in the link
maybe this could be your cory? it isnt Corydoras baderi

Thanks Medaka,

Those are most definately the same as what I purchased. I put this lil guy in my tank with my other cories and he has now colored up and looks exactly like Barbs! Looks like me and Barb shop at the same place, because I bought 8 delphax from my local store about 6 months ago labeled "spotted cories" this lil guy I have now was in with more of the Delphax cories!

Hi!

I agree it is not Corydoras baderi.
It is a species from the elegans group (body shape)
Difficult to determine what species the picture aren't too good and the fish has stressful colortion....
Mbe Ian could hlep!!

Cheers
