Hi All, I was wondering if you all might be able to lend a little experience and insight. My girlfriend has three Matae cory catfish that used to be very...
... snip.. Fading colors can be a sign of several things. One is age. They do tend to fade a bit as they age. What meds did you throw in there when the others...
Hey Les, As usual thanks for your great info and time. I will step up the water changes. We used kanamycin though their color changed prior to medicating the...
... snip.... That's not all that old for a cory. Many soecies only live one or two years, often as short as one breeding cycle in the wild, but corys are not...
In case I didn't mention it, the colors can be affected by the substrate and the amount of light reflected from it. Dark colors will darken the colors of the...
Thanks for all the in puts Les, Perhaps it took them a couple of months to fade on the lighter substrate though that would seem a bit on the long side. As for...
Hi there! I'm a new member to this group! I just got my first couple of corys a couple of days agoy and they are in quarantine as of now. I bought them to live...
Yes, it is fine to mix different species of corys. They will get along and school together. The only problem may come in mixing species that have different ...
Thanks for the reply! I'm on some gold fish lists too and I've seen across many forums that they keep Corys successfully with Golds. Any particular reason for...
Hi I'm John I am looking to set up a fairly large tank to house a small shoal of discus and I'm looking for info on good fish (corydoras in particular) that...
... snip.. Tyhe main reason is temps. Goldfish are cold water fish. Like room temp or lower down to the 50sF with no probs. All Corys are tropical, and very...
snip... And that's why corys are some of the neatest fish around. I would try maybe a 65 gallon tank. That's like a 55, but taller. Discus do better in the...
I've finally got the rearing techniques down for the Red Lizard cats fry and I have about 30 fry available that are about 2 months old, maybe an inch long. I...
Oustanding. Makes me itch to get a tank set up for them. Wish I had a place. I am lost with no fish. BTW< I added your webpage to the links section. ===== A...
I guess this definitely fits in the category of "more"... Does anyone out there have experience keeping African dwarf frogs? Not African clawed frogs......
Just thought I'd update you people after the help I got from Les! I let the corys in with the golds today and they love it. They are at present devouring some...
I don't think the receptionist would want to feed live food to them; and she helps with the feeding on my days off. She didn't even seem to like the idea of...
LoL! I really don't think you should be suggesting that to her. on the other hand maybe you could set it up and see if she ever gets it! :-) I just hope she's...
... them; and she helps with the feeding on my days off. She didn't even seem to like the idea of freeze-dried blood worms. I read that the clawed frogs...
I ran across a Cory that I don't recognize. I'm wondering what is coming into the US right now. Moderate long nose, strong vertical stripes in tail fin. ...
Sounds cool. Buy all you can afford. I can't come up with a name right off the top of my head. I KNOW I am getting old. Have you tried planetcatfish.com ? ...
Try these sites its too hard to id corys without a picture. So yout best bet maybe to search these maybe try looking up C. Robinae I doubt it but is somewhat ...
The mystery Cory looks like these fish from this site of Justin's: C.semiaquilus (Black Peru) C. septemtrionalis C. rodonia 1 C. purus 111 Anyone seen anything...
... snip.. I have found two semiaquilus in many years of looking. They are very plain, just an oddity, and hard to find fish. I found one septemtrionalis in...
Hi, Sorry for the multiple post here but one of my triliniatus cories has taken a turn for the worst.. He is in a 25 gallon tank - about a year old, which I...
C. sept. / link to image below. This shows a close up of a 3rd set of barbels that identify this species. I think this is the fish at my local store. ...
... And if I remember correctly, there are three or four more affiliated with this species. They are not sure if they are geographical variations or different ...
