Are these rare to find in a LFS or are they fairly common?

Yup, these are one of the tougher cories to find. From the looks of them, I wouldn't be surprised if a couple got mixed into a C. trilineatus shipment. Julli, trilineatus, and gomezi cories all look pretty similar, though the gomezi can be told apart without too much trouble.



And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

What are the differences between the 2, after seeing them with my own eyes (let's see if these were Gomezi) I noticed they were a little lighter in overall body color, almost an off white. Also I noticed that the markings on their face are not like that of Trineatus, they really are spotted not small lines. And, they didn't have as visible markings on their body's. Do you think these were Gomezis? They were advertised as "Assorted cories" Sounds familiar huh Janna?

Don't you just love those Assorted Cory tanks?


So get us a picture already! You're a premie, what's your problem?


They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes,
They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver,
So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.

I didn't get any for fear that they wouldn't school with the Trineatus....and actually I returned the Trineatus after we finally found some Pandas. Here's a pic of those!
