Lucky B@stard.....
Not as lucky as the dude over east who picked up some weitzmani...
Makes me just drooooool....
I picked up another 7 Orange Laser cories from vebas today. I thought I'd buy the rest just couldn't leave without me owning them.
So now that bumps my tally to:
12 Orange Laser Cories
2 Leucomelas
3 Metae
8 Hasbrosus
6 Pygmaeus
3 Rabauti

Hey kuhni biggrin.gif

Had googled Corydoras tapajos when i got home to start to find out more about them and got alot of confusing info so i posted on planetcatfish and they just may be C 142`s atm with a bit of luck so i really scored biggrin.gif

The Corydoras polystictus were only discovered in 2003 i read today also so am very very happy atm biggrin.gif

Got any pics of those Orange laser cories kuhni ?

Cheers biggrin.gif

As well as the planet catfish forum, there's a few cory fanatics at fishforums.net We are often graced with the presence of two greats of corydoras knowledge. Ian "Coryman" Fuller, author of several corydoradinae books and one of the leading authorities on corys in the world. As well as Frank Falcone also an immense figure when it comes to corydoras, had the first recorded spawning of CW016 C. Tenient in all aquaria.
You can see his list of corys at:
http://www.laurellak...pecie_list.html

He's a great guy helping to lower the prices of corydoras by breeding them in great quantities and selling fo reasonable prices. He is helping make the rarer corys easily in the reach of the any aquarist with his breeding efforts. I cannot say enough about this man. I am at awe at his generosity and selfless-ness.

Same tongue.gif
Orange Laser fry for all!
@ $10 each of course tongue.gif

Just need to get em to breed first tongue.gif
Alot of live blackworms and frozen bloodworms, big coldwater changes, should be easy as pie well in theory anyway tongue.gif I've been trying that for a while. I may kick the single Neolamprologus Meleagris out, would anyone be interested at $20? Male. That 12 Gallon would be perfect for an Orange Laser Breeding tank.
