Looking For Corydoras Habrosus (salt & Pepper Cory)

[KCB]

I was wondering if anyone knows of an LFS that sells Corydoras habrosus (salt and pepper cory)? Near Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire. The fish shops I know of only sell the normal pygmy type. I know I can buy them online, but that comes with more inherent risks than if I picked them up myself.

Thanks!

i know you said you would rather pick them up,but kesgrave tropicals on e-bay have a good reputation and i have bought from them with no problems

Thanks for the suggestion, I've heard good things about them. I'll go with them if there are no LFS's that sell them. My main concern is acclimating them properly, could you tell me how you acclimated your fish you purchased from them?

A bit of a hike for you, but I got mine last month from Aquajardin in Southampton.

I've been to P@H to pick up some Endlers but they have quite limited stock and didn't see any pygmys there. I've been to the Deep Blue one but not sure I had a good enough nosy, i'll have a look there again.

Haha quite a journey! I'd rather risk ordering online . Thanks anyway.
