They are false julli corydoras, but they are darn cute. I have a solo adult false julii from my original school that is 5 years old, and ever since his last companion died 2 weeks ago the glass surfing has been unreal. Took me a while to hunt these kids down but in 2 weeks, my adult is going to be soooo happy!
I have a school of 16 chili rasboras in a 29 gallon with kuhli loaches, a honey gourami, cpds, cories, neocardina shrimp, and a few leftover harlequin tetras. I haven't added new stock since March, added a few tissue culture plants last weekend. I have one chili with some strange slime buildup on one side and the outer margins of the caudal fin. It could be fuzz, but it looks more like slime coat sloughing off. I was able to opportunistically catch it by being very sneaky while culling my duller neos and have it in a cup currently. I have a 2 gallon set up that I use as holding for neos before I sell them, but my ideal cure here would be an aquarium salt bath and immediate return to tank. This doesn't look like any of the typical diseases I've dealt with before (ich and columnaris) and I first noticed this fish over a week ago.nitbhasnt been getting better and has been out and behaving normally, but is not improving either. I could keep it separated in the 2 gallon, but thought the stress of being solo might do it in. Has anyone had success with Aquarium Salt baths and micro rasboras? I know they are super sensitive to salts so was hesitant. I did 1.2 grams in a cup of tank water. So far I haven't been brave enough to add it in there.

My spouse came home with these. Any idea what variety they are? They are pretty hard still, so I don't want to cut one open to look at the flesh color yet. If that's necessary for ID I can update when one gets soft.
