More in second post!
 
Pygmaeus (10), planning to get 5 more due to how shy they are. Figure more will make them even happier.

Ambiacus (1). Love him but unable to find more anywhere. Ive tried looking, asking for special orders, online (limited in canada), no luck. Unfortunately this is a by-catch corydoras, not one target caught for the hobby.

Let me know how the breeding works!
It won't be until the DG fry are out, but i know one is a mature male as he is going around harassing the gravid females of other species lately lol. The other 3 are hard to say what sex they are. I suspect the one in the second weitzmani photo is a young female though.
 
Updating with more photos.

Picked up a couple that resemble my Ambiacus, but are not Ambiacus. But they do group together so that makes me happy enough. Still pending an exact ID on them though. Edit: theyve been identified as C. Leucomelas

This photo shows my Ambiacus chilling with one of his new friends. Hes the one sitting behind the other. Note the mask doesnt go through the eye on the Ambiacus

How do you get your lovely photos? Camera? Settings? I cannot seem to take good fish photos. I tried to take stills, but that was hopeless. These are screen shots from a video, which aren't great, and most of it looked blurry whenever you paused the video. The bottom two are corydoras carlae. I added the plec because she was sitting still for a moment.

I'm using an Olympus OM10.
