Hello,
Can someone tell me how can I recognise if my cory (corydoras) are male or female?

its very hard to tell the gender.....but some species can tell when they come to adult size,In adult specimens,the female has fuller,more robust body compare to the slender male.

Yup minghan got some of the facts right. Some specimens do exhibit sexual differences like C.Undulatus. SOme in colors while others in finnage and so on.
Go to yahoo and search for corycats.

It's Ian Fuller's site

Great info in ID of cory and how to identify them. Even better if you can get your hands on his books on breeding corydora cats. Of course he will tell u in more detail in his book on how to ide males and females.
