Whats the difference between false n true juili how would you tell the diff?

The difference between the species is in the spotting on the head: C.julii has distinct individual spotting, whereas C. trilineatus has reticulated lines. C.julii has its origin in Brazil whereas C. trilineatus comes from Peru or Ecuador. Most commercial fish trade pulls from the trilleanatus aka three lined cory territory. That is why it is more available.
 
the corydoras in question here is actually a color variant of C. schultzi, called C. schultzi "black". it was discovered over a decade ago through breeding, and it is being mass produced. thus, it is not rare (assuming a fish is rare when it is wild-caught and the supply is sparse).

Actually its an aeneus black cory. And it's rare where I live because no fish shops in my county have them.
 
Very sad news. One of my 4 red sail fin Cory's died this morning. Babies are hard to keep alive. Started with 6 now 3. ;(

@magic The red sail fin babies are RED then turn white, have a "deer in headlight look" then die. No one can figure out why?...
 
Just when I thought I was getting good, (ok, just less grossed out), at squishing snails and removing snail eggs from the aquarium glass… I went to scrub off what I thought was more snail eggs but when I touched them they felt …rubbery!

More cory babies on the way perhaps?
