If you don't mind ppl knowing what you have, it might be good for you to add your profiles to the breeders register. Would make a change from all the cichlid breeders

Hi Keith,

Just wondering if your C. seussi are breeding?
Some years back I caught a glimpse of some C.gossei in the flesh (one nice little fish) they have held my interest ever since. C. seussi not being much different, I wouldn't mind getting some of these guys one day, nice fish!

Hi Tammy,

No not yet. I only got 3 fish off a mate of mine 2males and one female and I lost a male over xmas (jumped out ) He's got about six I think and is still trying to get them going. We're endeavoring to get some more but their hard to come by and very expensive to land here in oz. We were hoping to get a few of the rarer species and breed them and sell them cheap to make them more readily available to other enthusiasts but so far things have conspired against us (all is not lost yet though) The seuss gossei would probably retail in oz around the $80-$100 mark but if we can get species like this going it would be good to get them down to $15 to $20s and that would make them more accessible to most catfish nuts. The're a good looking cory and they grow to approx 9cm

Hi Keith,

Ouch! Sorry to hear you lost one of them.

Sounds like a great idea to help bring the price down and get more of the rarer species out there.

That is impresive Alan.
Do you also have many kind of plecos? At the moment I only have few peppermints but like to have more exotic small size species if my budget permits.

[Tammy Brisbane]

That's pretty impressive eh and that's not to mention past kept and breed species ha Alan. lol

[Keith Deception Bay]

Hi Alan,
Lucky I'm not trying to keep up with that lot or I'd have to buy a new house with a few bigger sheds in the back yard.
Ha Ha

[Keith Deception Bay]

Hi Ian, Thats a really impressive list. I only wish we had alot of those corys available to us in oz. The albino ancistrus are only just becoming available here also. So I'll keep on dreaming like everyone else around here.


Keith.

[Tammy Brisbane]

Hullo Ian.

Great site. Makes my little collection look a bit sad. C`mon, tell us what is your really absolutely favourite little guy.

cheers Roger

[Ian Fuller]

Hi Roger.

My favourite Cory! All of em. Seriously I supose it would be a toss up between C. pygmaeus the first Cory I bred in 1974 and C. arcuatus the first Cory to get me a best fish in show in 1977.

[Link 2 Hell]

Hi Ian
Welcome to the forum
A very impressive list of Cory breeding that deserves a for the work you have put in
Could you give us an idea of the CSG(UK) and its workings,
website, etc

I can just picture Alan salivating over your Cory's
just like most of us that would like a set up like his
