Are they Corydoras seussi or Corydoras gossei?

They are about 3-3.5 cm long.
I wonder if anybody is breeding them?
Could you share your experience?

According the the Cateolg for these two species, there are 16 registered keepers for and 11 for , though breeding is unreported for both at this time. Can they be sexed - have you seen Ian's sticky post on sexing corydoras?

They are C. gossei :)

They should be kept warm...26-28 degrees celcius would be fine.

The catelog says that C. seussi is different from C. gossei by a pointed vs. rounded snout. Your fish looks like it's got a rounded snout, so I would go with go with gossei. I also updated the Cat-eLog so that BOTH of these species have identification remarks, rather than just one of them.

You can find article about breeding them on this web-site. :D
And google has some links, too.

Thanks for that. I updated the breeding field to link to the Shane's World article too.
