Does anyone know of a good website to purchase Corydoras arcuatus? I couldn't find them on aquabid, liveaquaria or corysrus. Out of the 5 LFS that I go to I could only find 2 fish at 1 store.

Fish2u sometimes has them here (be prepared to pay a lot) although they're out right now. I checked the other freshwater websites I occasionally visit, and none had C. arcuatus even listed. It might be worth calling or going back to the store with the two arcuatus and asking if they will order more in the near future. If they know that people are asking for them, they'll be more likely to get more in.

Just took a look at that.

They charge $25.00 each for Corydoras weitzmani. Here in the UK, I'd be charged £24.00 each, which at current exchange rates is $46.00 per fish un US money.

I am SO jealous.

Well I'm in luck, the store I work at just got in some C. arcuatus in under the "assorted corydoras" tag, haha. Got them for a whole $1 cheaper than I found the initial 2. All I need to do is stumble across a couple more and I'll be set.

Cali, that site I linked is actually pretty expensive. I've seen weitzmani for less than $15 in more than one place, and I think I remember them being about $12 at last year's Catfish Convention. There aren't any Corydoradinae breeders that you can get ahold of? There are supposed to be quite a few in the U.K.
