Hello there!

Long time I didn't said anything here, I was on my carnivorous plants project, anyway, yesterday night was cleaning time and in one of my main tanks (Three are connected) i discovered a tiny corydoras about barely 1cm with some paterns of a C. panda and some dots of the C. trilineatus, I have in this tank one old male trilineatus, three young trilineatus unsexed yet, aaaaand one male panda...:dk:

Does anyone know if an hybridation is possible?
I have made some pictures yesterday but this is hard as hell to photograph that tiny douche that can't stop swimming with my stupid camera free from macro mode.. anyway, I'll post some pictures later...

Thanks in advance for your knowledge:hi:

Nice pics, I always love cory fry :)

It's still in fry colouration so I wouldn't say hybrid just yet, trilineatus fry do look this at this stage, it should be much clearer as the pattern develops which I would say will be within a couple of weeks.

Cheers

ho? it still could be trilineatus then? no problems I'd be happy anyway, this is the black mask on the eye that makes me thinks about the panda, let us wait...

For now he's fed with sera viformo, crushed tetra prima discus and other sinking pellets from sera and tetra, do you recommand anything else?

Thats a pretty good diet, I also feed frozen baby brine shrimp but not sure how readily available this would be for you.

a little update about my baby cory, it seems that it is just a trilineatus after all, except the black line on his eye everything is from trili, plus I've seen several time the couple breeding... anyway thanks for the infos I appreciate the help! more photos to come!
