    That only counts for the Schultzi "Black"!! Often sold as "Black Venezuela" though they aren't closely related to C.Venezuelanus (both in the Aeneus-group) nor coming from there (from German tanks). Don't know if they are imported in SA.

    There are C.aeneus that are green colored as well BTW.

    Yes that will be grate. We have quite a big LFS in Port Elezabeth. Will speak to owners and see if thy won't be interested to bring in some more species. As far as I know there maby 7 spices available for sale in South Africa. At times there is a couple of different species.

    Would love to get my hand on some of the more species. I am in the process of setting up a fish room for breeding Corydoras only.

    Regards Christo.
