I bought these at the LFS and they told me they were Bronze Cory's, but im kind of afraid they are actually Emerald Catfish. Any thoughts?

They look, to me, to be emerald cats.
Had to edit that because the more I looked at it the more it matches with them
 
Thats the way it is for me too. But as soon as I almost have myself convinced I find a different picture online that makes me feel the other way lol.

That's exactly what's happening to me! I have a book somewhere that said how to tell them apart but I've been looking for it forever and haven't had any luck finding it. I'm going to put my money on emerald but maybe once they mature or settle in more we'll be able to tell with a little more security.
 
I know that the two of them look alike but those sort of look like my emeralds
 
Yeah after looking in two of my books on fish and looking at the ones in my tank I think they re emerald Corrys
 
Emerald cories, not real cories, trust me, they grow huge! I had two in my 55 gallon and try got to be like the size of my pinkie!
