Got Julii Cories Instead of Panda

[MrMup04]

Well, since they didn't have any panda cories in stock. They had a ton of beautiful looking julii cories, so I decided to get them. They were 3 for $14.98 or $4.98 each. I am not sure what sex they are, the lady who got them from me said that she didn't know how to sex them so yeah. My hopes are that there are 2 females and 1 male.

Pictures are in my photo album, enjoy the wonderful pictures taken by me with my sister's camera !

Maybe this will help with sexing and breeding: http://www.corydorasworld.com/basics.htm

Dang. That's expensive, at my PetCo it is only $1.99 each. Have they bred yet?

 

[MrMup04]

Ecotank - Thanks for the link, i'll try to look closely to see which one is female and which one is male.

Ty6464 - I see, well this isn't a chain petstore so it has better quality fish so that's why it's expensive. No they haven't bred yet, don't plan to breed them at the momment, want to let them get used to the tank.

I'm sorry to brag, but jees these are the best picture I ever taken with my sister's camera. The incandescent light shining down on them, makes them look like gold!

Hi Ecotank,
I looked into the link and the pic there showed the 'shapes' of the 2 sexes of corys...
So, a female is just fuller in shape? Anything prominant in marking on the fins?

If you read what I post carefully, maybe you will know where to find the pictures.

Guys, I just found out that these are julii cories although they are similar to them. These are trillinateous I believe, I think my lps got them mixed up with julii cories that's why they labeled it that name.

 

[oscarowner559]

What store did you buy those at?
I swear my fish store had some kind of cory that looks just like yours labeled "julli cory" or something like that.
I asked and they said it was a mistake..wierd..

They look nice. Congratulations.

I'm not entirely sure they're julii. They could be C. trilineatus. Check some pics at planetcatfish.com to make sure.

It looks like your cories could do with a little cave or somewhere to hide. You don't want to stress them out

Lotus yeah I know, I stated in my post that they were c. trillineatus instead of julii cories and that my lps got them mixed. I'll see if I could get a cave, most likely it'll be one of those coconut kinds
