    hi .. i have been searching for different types .. quite a collection i have but i'm too lazy to name them.. got them mostly from tiong bahru market LFS.. cost ard $2~$18 each depending on species

    anyway.. if u wanna keep u must keep at least abt 6 per species .. they don't really click well with different species.. i usually see them swimming in their own schools (same species) .. they need a lot of space to swim in if as they r hyper active..

    actually i also very lazy lah, but these are the common ones:

    c. aneneus - bronze cory - also there're albinos
    c. panda
    c. trilineatus - that's your leopard cory
    c. pxxx - peppered cory
    c. sterbai

    then like what LeAnn told you, tiongbahru will have other species too.

    other places to look: b328 clementi, h2o in kembagan, petmart in serangoon north...

    have fun!

    yeah, c. trilineatus is actually not leopard cory. but locally (in singapore) when people say "leopard" that's what they normally refering to.

    leopard cory has its own scientific name.

    Actually, leopard cory is a common name and is used for many different kind of cories. Is it Juli or leapordus?

    Some of them look really really similar.

    Something like that, haha. I was the one who convinced him to buy them.

    Well, the leopard family looks rather similar, agree?

    Personally, I find the Sterbai Cory the nicest of them all. Next is the Adolfi(sp?), the one with a red dot on its head. I used to have one Sterbai that is 5cm long from mouth to tail. I got it when it was just a babe. And it was from a home breeder.

    my personal favourites are arcuatus, adolfoi, burgessi and axelrodi
