I do have the Dainty Cory (Corydoras habrosus)... but would like to get the others.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Similis is not really dwarf. They can grow up to 5cm.

I just saw some Cory Similis at Y618.. Smaller in size.. Perhaps you can go take a look to see if it is up to your liking though they are not pygmeuas corys.. However they will not grow till very big in size..

Thanks for the pointer to Y618. I got a few C. similis.

5cm as its max size is not too bad ... dwarf enough for me.

Found: Corydoras similis, Corydoras hastatus.
Had: Corydoras habrosus (one died - 2 left)

Still looking for Corydoras pygmaeus, Corydoras habrosus. Pointers appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hmm... which tank were they in? I went there many times recently but only saw common ones like leopards, pandas and sterbais... many of them in my tanks now...

Ben's has quite a lot of different cories when I went yesterday... some which I've never seen before and based on their prices I would think they are quite rare ones. If not for the price I would have bought a few and posted pics here ... anyway you might want to take a look...

A shipment of 50 Corydoras habrosus arrived at C328. FYI.

I went again this morn to Y618 and also C328... still have a few left! auntie and uncle still very unfriendly though

Maybe you keep staring at the habrosus tank or they are really in a bad mood.Most of the time they are quite friendly & helpful except for the china guy & one of the counter lady. By the way i also bought some habrosus over at c328 and is cheaper than those at y618 & biotope.No wonder c328 is so popular & frequent by many.

yeah the china guy is crap... after wrapping the fish he can't even find the tanks where the fish came from to check the prices. and the counter lady you mentioned is the lady boss...

[iapetusjin]

Talking about prices,i have to share a really good bargain i got over at yishun aquastar.l bought 10 gold tetra & some similis cory from them & the price was $2 a piece for gold tetra but the staff who wrapped the fish mistakenly wrote $10 on the packet.I asked him again for the price & he assured me it was $1 a piece & don't even bother to check the price.A few days later, i went back to get some more but a different staff who wrapped the fishes told me it was $2 a piece & the price is always the same for gold tetra.The boss should really examine the quality of his staff If he wants to avoid giving unnecessary discount

Really? I never got such good treatment when I go to aquastar! And even corydoras similis juveniles are not cheap (or at least based on the prices I paid for them at Yishun 618. You are so lucky!
