Yesterday I purchased 3 pygmy cory cats from the lfs. (I know that 6 is the minimum preferred number to have...the store only had 3, and I had been to every store within a 30 mile radius with these being the only 3...I intend to add more when I can find them available)
When I got them home I noticed that the markings on one of the fish is quite different from the other 2, and think he may be a different variety of cory catfish. Since I am having a hard time finding them in general, and am not sure that the 3 I have are all the same, I am just questioning if I end up with 6 cory cats and they are not all the same variety if they are still happy as a school, or if they need to all be the same.
