That's a huge one hahahaa. My concolors were smaller. Have seen enormous Concolors in Piers Aquatics in Wigan UK some years ago.

They are real characters DoubleDutch.They can pile the sand up when feeding voraciously,I’m forever back filling behind them.
My C.aeneus have fin rot,which comes and goes,always have had.All the others are fin perfect,so I’m wondering if C.aeneus are prone to this.
what do you think DoubleDutch?could it be to do with breeding,or is it really just mine that are prone?

My biggest Corydoras grew to be a whole foot and a half. I made him a little waterlung and took him for walks and picnics and suchlike and called him Kevin.

One busybody saw us out together and said that I should take him to the local aquarium.
Kevin told her to mind her own business and that we'd already been and were on our way to the Library next.




Forgive me...I've had a trying morning.

Didn't you keep Kevin in a decent shoal ?

Sadly, he wouldn't identify with his smaller ex-tank mates. I last saw him heading up the Orinoco...

Trying morning?Whats that got to do with what you wrote Bruce? Or is it going over my head?

It was but a silly tale, a potential thread hijack and a rather bad joke, hence the apology.
Normally, I wouldn't have, but, as I said, I've had a trying morning.
Nuff said.
