yeah green/bronze/emarld cory they're labeled as all of the above in fish stores. Corydoras aeneus. How many do you have?
I ended up getting 12, this one just looks alot different, all the other ones look like this http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/image.php?image_id=129
The one in question is more green and iridescent and covers more of the body and the fins are a lot lighter

Emerald corys usually is the common name for Brochis splendes which really isn't a cory...C. aeneus is most often referred to as the bronze cory IME.

The c. aeneus comes in my different froms. I have that are pinker than others and some that have fins a little bit longer. I also have 2 that have a stripe on top. I think they're all lumped into the corydoras aeneus group. But yea I have seen "emerald cories" sell but are also bronchis splendes.. but they're pretty easy to tell apart. Goodpoint though.
