I have only three cories at the moment but they have became one of my favourite fish.

I'd just like to know what your favourite type is?

Maybe post some pictures of your cories aswell to show us.

Albinos. I haven't had other varieties, but I loved them so much.

I have had lots of different corys over the years and I must say that the albinos have been my favorite they are active all over the tank and get what I call zoomies were they swim all over the tank in groups together not just on the bottom.

I love my Schwartzi's simply for the cuteness factor. I love their little black masked faces. I've also had Sterbai, Trilineatus and Bronze cories. But I just love the markings on the Schwartzi's.

Welcome to the cory club!!

They are my favorite too. I really love them all, but right now I think my c. elegans are my favorite.. They are very efficient cleaners but they also like to hover in mid water... always look like they are having a good time...

That said though, I've never met a cory I didn't like :-D

I am in love with my itty bitty habrosus cory! The largest of my five is only about 3/4" and the smallest is just over 1/3".

I have a hard time finding them, but they are the cutest lil boogers ever!! And when they are out and about they are all over the place. Was hoping they would school more, but they all pretty much go their own way. Thinking about adding some albinos this week.

Sounds good.. just remember they will also need a group to be happy and thriving!

Honestly I could see myself easily with a fish room totally filled with cories only.

In the spring, I'm getting the honor of obtaining more cories from Frank Falcone, Coryologist... I am beyond exited and honored... CANT't WAIT!

Yeah, I have 5 of my corydoras right now, considering getting more of the habrosus to add to the existing group. If not, I am going to add like 4 or 5 small albinos.

My habrosus are so small, I cant imagine having the pygmies like I originally wanted!!

Congrats on the coming cory!!!
