Post by gizmo »

Hello Community

i bought last week a couple of Corydoras from a dealer.
I think these are Ortegai Corys. Can you confirm this?

Looks like a good match to me (or the photos in our Cat-eLog page are wrong - this has happened).

Hello to all

puh, what a luck. I've see them in a store and i wasn't sure. i bought all 26 pieces at a venture.
Cool. I love them; they are very friendly and nothing at all shy.

Thanks for your help.
Sandy
