I think this is a Reynoldsi. Agree?

Post by nj2tou »

Went to my favorite aquarium shop to get some Panda cories. I had had 6, but over the years they died one by one, leaving me with just one, so I wanted to get her some company. While there, I saw this one cory all alone and felt sorry for it. I really wished there was more than one, but it seems to get along with the Pandas. :d The owner told me what it was, but I couldn't remember what he said. I looked through the catalogue and it seems to be a Reynoldsi. What do you guys think? btw, this shop has a ton of different cories and had some gorgeous Adolfoi that I wanted, but were too expensive - $27.99 for one or $50 for two. :(( I told them I love cories and have several species, and they said there's a guy with a 120 gallon tank that has dozens of species! I would love to see his tank! It's called Tropical Showcase in Hicksville Long Island NY.

A shot showing a whole fish (w/ dorsal fin) might help.
It does look like .
is the other possible ID.
From Identifying Corydoradinae Catfish
Corydoras reynoldsi is a very similar species, but lacks the very high dorsal fin, and the body markings are less well defined.

Ooops! didn't realize the dorsal was cut off. I was so busy trying to get a good shot of the body. I'll see if I got one with the dorsal. I know that's important in identifying it.

I agree with Kim that this is Reynoldsi
Lou: Every young man's fantasy is to have a three-way.
Jacob: Yeah not with another fu**!ng guy!
Lou: It's still a three-way!
