Black Cory's

The only time I have seen all black Cory's was about a year ago at one of the local swap's I attend. I am not sure what the scientific name was, but the guy that was selling them said they where wild caught. I do not remember what part of the globe they where from. He was asking $60.00 for either 2 or 3 of them. They definitely where cool looking, just couldn't see paying that much for them, so I passed. I have never seen these in any LFS before. You could try www.planetcatfish.com to see if you can find the correct name for them.

I have never heard of an "all black cory". A Barbadus is almost black, but is not a cory (looks like a big cory),
