If your talking about emerald corys im 95% sure its natural

So far I've not come across a green Cory. If it's bright green then it's very unlikely to be natural.

A photo would help.

Cheers

X2 if the fish are a bright color then there most likely dyed

It isn't like bright green or anything crazy I will get a couple photos when I get home...they probably are emerald corrys but they had them as green corrys at the lfs

I've seen brighter greens on Aquabid labeled as green laser corys and also orange ones. The sellers claim wild caught but I don't know.

Ok I will have to get a pic tomorrow lights are out and I don't want to freak them out by turning them on

Here's the link to the Aquabid listing to see if they are similar

No that's not them....here are a couple pics

No those are normal emerald Cory's, remember, three emerald cories, are not Cory's, they are a different species of dwarf inches, but they top off 4-5 inches and are very active, I wouldn't recommend anything smaller than a 40 gallon for them

Brochis slendens is what species emeralds are I believe, they get larger then normal Cory's as goldfish stated.
