Corydoras similis

[steeler58]

This is one of my personal favorites of the Corydoras family. I started keeping them 4 years ago and even had them spawn a few times in my 50g. None of the eggs made it to the fey size however. A little smaller than many members of the family and able to take their temps a little higher. Their are mostly tank raised specimens available now but they carry a little higher price still but 7.00 is not bad for a "rarer cory". These guys at least to me seem more alert looking than others ;-)

Lol DD.

Lee I have always liked these..maybe in 11 or so years I will have room in my 75 for them. Currently have a ton of albinos.

Thank you for all of these great cory spotlight threads. :thumbup:

Glad you guys are enjoying them, too tired after my baseball game to start a new thread tonight ;-)

[Boundava]

Rest up Lee, put your feet up and relax. Those corys (and AC) can wait another day, no worries. :ssmile:

Put Pygmy Cory on your list please. I have some hanging out in my fry tank but don't know much about them. Make that nothing actually. Saw what I think was a good deal at a show and had to pick them up.
