Identify this Cory

Brochis have a more elongated snout than Aeneus Corys. The third fish doesn't seem to have it, although the angle could be better.

Also got a few of this, not sure about it's ID also
It has a nice dark blue coloration from head to almost 3/5 of the body and then gradually turn Yellow towards the tail. Very very active...

I put my vote on Emerald Cory for this little guy. He doesn't look like he's doing so hot though :(
 
The one in the third photo (photo above) is Corydoras concolor. An uncommon but still regularly available cory. Not sure about the first one.

And here I think the second one looks like a Corydoras agassizii to me...

Bingo! Thanks Andy, did another search on Google image and it looks exactly like the one I have
 
I've search images of Corydoras agassizii, comparing it to the first one, it lacks the yellow coloration on the head and the dark coloration on the dorsal fin is not that visible. Also the doted pattern on the body are more irrgular in my cory compared to the images of corydoras agassizii.

Internet images of some cories are not accurate at all. I have 7 Agassizii cories and they look like the 1st photo. I bought them from a well-known cory breeder.
