Corydoras robineae

[steeler58]

Something very different, The only known species of Corydoras with a black and white horizontally striped ''flag tail''. I seen them offered for sale at some sites but never observed a live specimen ;-)

Bought these guys as a birthday present for myself last thursday. Stunning species! Bought 12, but only after 3 days I found out they were with 14! The lining and their movement make even the human eye has a hard time to seperate the individuals.
They mainly move about in the back of the tank, but still very visible. Insanely happy I got them!

Always nice to talk to people that actually keep these different species ;-)

Wow, those are really, really cool. Off to see if TWS has any...

[Boundava]

Right, super neat and dizzying with their body pattern. Definitely one to keep in mind for the future.

[WhistlingBadger]

TWS doesn't have them. :( Just as well, ha ha ha Need to buy groceries and stuff...

There are so many Corydoras to pick out besides the basic ones we see all the time :scry:
