Cinnebuns Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I'm wondering if anyone has ever noticed this on their panda cories. Lately I have noticed a green shimmer on the back black part of some of mine that I bred. I've never noticed until recently. I doubt I would be able to catch it on a pic so I didn't even try. It's similar to the green shimmer paleatus cories can get and I've only noticed it on the black spot in the back near their tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardedbillygoat1975 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I’ve seen a blue or opalescent sheen but never green. Super interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of cool this randomly came up. Pearlescent is what I would call it. Similar to the paleatus corydoras green shimmer. You can see the smallest hint of this on the midbody here: Tail here: A bit more clear photo with the slight pearlescent scheen, very subtle.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theplatymaster Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 ive got a emerald sheen on my Albino Cories, and ive seen it on paleatus too. I wouldnt have thought pandas would have it. It might have to do with their bony plates reflecting light or something. IDK, im not an ichthyologist, i just made a random guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
