Has anyone ever had any Cory's cross breed in their tanks?

I found to my surprise 3 different aged baby Cory in one of my tanks, & they look like they are a cross between a Julie & a Panda. Then I noticed a male Panda following a female Julie like a puppy dog.

Nope.. than again I only have pygmy cory and albino cory in my tank. Maybe i will have albino pygmy cory?!!

I only know my albino cory can't see really well (or don't care) as it ran over pygmy cory several times when they searched for food.

Unintentionally but yup, I have adolfoi and panda cross. And years ago, male sterbai and female adolfoi cross.
If you have more than one cory species in the same tank, you may have surprises.

I've been hoping for some success of breeding the Julie & Panda Cory's, but not like this! I'm not going to kill the little guys, they are too much fun to watch (when I can see them out of hiding) & too cute to just get rid of. I guess I have to make up a name for them now... how about Panda-Jewel or Jeweled-Panda or Julanda lol.

If I can get a pic of one of them I will post it on here. They have the body colour, stripe over the eye & spot on the dorsal fin like the Panda, but the stripes & spots on the body of the Julie, makes for an interesting fish, but they are still only 2-6 weeks old.

Here is a pic of the oldest one.

That doesn't look half bad, congratulations

Yes, my one remaining Adolfoi (who was really old!) apparently bred this little guy with one of my other Corys...
