Corydoras with gold spot

[NoodleAquatics]

Here's another corydoras to ID

Hybrid schultzei or something else?
Sloped long face, dark colour, metallic blue-green sheen, and bold gold streak on back but does not continue down entire fish. Some angles it doesnt show. 















Last 3 photos are taken from my phone. Same fish in all the photos.

Corydoras Aeneus are widely variable so I think it’s a Aeneus

Awesome. She mixes with my other aeneus, but this individual is soooo very skittish. She looks different from my other aeneus so wanted to double check. Another forum told me a schultzei hybrid


My others lack the marking and their black smudge is straighter. Interesting the regional differences. Id think then if the one is a columbian variant, it is probably wild caught and would explain the wariness, my other normal ones are very tame and human friendly lol
