i havent seen too many species since my LFS offers quite a bit, but my paleatus cories might be the best looking ones ive seen in a while. albinos look pretty sweet as well as spotteds. if i can get a decent pic of my paleatus ill post it up. you have any luck breeding btw?

i purposely put them in a heavily planted 10 gallon aquarium with sand bottom. Then i did the whole breeding process. And it worked, it took 2 nights though. But once i got it, it was easy!
btw try hard to get a picture so i can tell for you. try to make it from the side and she is swimming, not in the substrate. i know its hard but you can do it!

This is getting a little off-topic, so I might split this into a new thread...Favorite cories. Don't stop posting! I'm just trying to keep info on topic,and easier to find. One of my favorites is Robustus:
That is an old pic. The females are now 4-1/4". Another favorite has been reclassified as Scleromystax Barbatus:

I've had it about 3 years, and have been breeding for about 2. When I bought it at 1-1/2", I think it cost about $10 with shipping.

I'd definitely pay that much for a sick looking cory like that. I attempted to get a couple pics of my cories today with another friends camera since it works better than mine and she's going to send me the pics sometime later tonight or tomorrow. I should have some pics up sometime soon.

I'm a big fan of Panda Cories, here are a few of mine. They act as though they've never been fed

Ahh..its so hard to pick a favorite.

I love my Pandas...


But, I also love my Albinos because they are by far the most active cories I own.


I guess I'd have to choose those 2 as my favs although I also have Sodalis cories, Schwartzi, and Trilineatus cories.
