Green stripe or yellow stripe

Post by Karin »

I just bought 10 corydoras and I would like some help from you. I'm not sure whether they are green stripe or yellow stripe. The seller said they were green stripe but I dont't see much green in them... The seller had both green and yellow stripe.

Thanks

The color on the laser stripe is very dull. Perhaps it's just stress, but I'm more inclined towards . Hopefully others with more experience can sound off too.

Thanks for your reply. You are probably right. Sad though, I really wanted green stripe.

They are still quite young, about 5 months old. Could the green stripe come later on?

Those look a lot like pure orange strip. Green lasers are a neon dark green. I'll post pictures of mine later on today.

Hi,

no. I think latest after 2-3 months you can tell for sure.
The brownish colour of the fins clearly shows that they are none of the laser types.
I would also go for C. schultzei.

Cheers,
