Looking at yer pics..the markings are kinda network looking like C. Trilineatus..whereas Juliis really just have "dot" patterns..on their head etc. Look at the pic of c. Julii here http://planetcatfish.com/core/index.htm and here's a pic of my C. Trilineatus(except for the one about the two on the bottom..he's a C. Elegans) http://mediaservice.photoisland.com/auction/Sep/2004958984991602148565.jpg [span class="edited"][Edited by 2004-09-05 13:58][/span]

Don't worry though, both cories look equally cool. And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

The patterning is not accurate when identifying the two species, and even experts have trouble discerning the two. Devon's corys are C. trilineatus, as C. julii is not imported comercially into the American market. I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.
