Ok, this one I don't have a clue on.

I bought it as c schwartzii (as opposed to c schwartzi).

Is it just a normal c aeneus? It is nearly like a rabauti, but it cannot be.

C eques?

This is <I>Corydoras aenues</I> "gold" or "red" or "orange" stripe, which may be the fish previously known as <I>C. schultzi</I> until that name was moved in synonymy with the former.

Yes, I think you're right Jools. It's Gold Stripe.

I was loathe to identifying it as that as I have some Gold Stripe that a far more golden generally in appearance to this cory.

This one has been known for a long time as C. aeneus schultzii and will in all likely hood eventualy prove to be C. schultzii. But untill a scientist takes hold of them and compares type specimens they will remain lumped with C. aeneus.
