Stuck on Corydoras ID...

Post by ChileRelleno »

I picked up two nice looking Corydoras yesterday, I looked for more of this variety and will pickup a couple more to round out the shoal when they get some in a shipment.
Anyways, I can't settle on a positive ID :roll:

:?: IMO the first three are the most likely candidates, what do ya'll say :?
Their saddles are a nice golden/yellow with irridescent hues and some emerald spotting behind the gills, spots seem to be more verticall arranged...
Much like C. delphax, but I can't make a positive ID.
C. ambiacus
C. delphax
C. leucomelas
C. melanistius
C. sp. (C103)

I would say from the pictures that they are C. delphax.
