They are so fun to watch, and I think one is trying to mate. he keeps dancing all around the others like a fairy dance LOL!

they look like bronze corys C. Aeneus. but it's hard to say with the blurriness.

How hard is it to brred these, and how can I tell male females?
I would love to get them to breed, and I did drop the temp a bit,( 78) and did a good water change.

Once they mature, females should look noticeably fatter than the males, and probably get a bit larger too. Once they're in condition (with high protein and live/forzen foods for a few weeks) a cool water change (to drop the temperature several degrees) is supposed to work... but this is hypothetical since I've never bred them LOL

They'll do great in a small school, and you'll get a kick out of their behavior. :)
