    Default Please help identify this Cory catfish

    I'm told it is a Julii cory. Looking for conformation or other opinions. Thanks.

    Doesn't look like a Juli. I believe it's a Sterbai Cory

    Looks more like a sterbai to me, but I am far from even a catfish novice...

    Yes, C. sterbai not C. julii. C. julii has the reverse body pattern--light body color with dark spots, and also has a distinctive black blotch on the dorsal.

    Thanks! I did some research and am in agreement with all. I think the black on the Julii dorsal and the orange/yellow of the Sterbai is all the confirmation needed. All replies appreciated.
