EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Antrel Rolle sat in a nearly empty locker room, slouched on his stool and scratching his head.
With his head down, the safety kept searching for answers -- and there simply were none. The New York Giants had suffered a collapse for the ages, the kind that can cripple a team's confidence and have fans calling for Bill Cowher.
Tom Coughlin won't lose his job unless the team suffers a complete meltdown and quits in the final two weeks. But on Sunday afternoon, he certainly was out of answers following a stunning 38-31 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
"I've never been around anything like this in my life," Coughlin said. "It's about as empty as you get to feel in this business."
For the second straight year, the Giants sent fans to the exits after the home regular-season finale, looking for the first trash can to puke into. But unlike last year's 41-9 no-show against the Panthers, the Giants played their hearts out, only to have them ripped out by Michael Vick and the Eagles -- kind of like how a Predator yanks the spinal cord out of its victim in the movies.
Playing inspired and dominant football, the Giants built a 24-3 halftime lead and led 31-10 with 8:17 remaining. They were eight minutes away from their biggest win of the year and they could taste the NFC East title.
Instead, the Michael Vick experience went into full effect and it remains to be seen if the Giants will ever make a full recovery. The Eagles quarterback threw a 65-yard touchdown to Brent Celek, ran for 94 of his 130 yards -- including a 4-yard touchdown scamper -- and then hit Jeremy Maclin for a 13-yard touchdown to even the game at 31 with 1:16 remaining.
Vick left the New Meadowlands breathless in a matter of minutes. Then Giants killer DeSean Jackson took the life out of a stadium that had hoped to party, ripping off a game-winning 65-yard punt return that was an absolute blur as time expired. All the Giants had needed to do was punt the ball out of bounds, maybe make one stop and get ready for overtime.
"Words can't explain it," Eagles linebacker Jamar Chaney said in the jubilant winning locker room. "You can't even write a movie like that."
The Giants had seen this movie ending too many times when it comes to the Eagles, who won their sixth straight over their NFC East rival.
But even M. Night Shyamalan couldn't have written a more unexpected and stunning twist of an ending.
Coughlin had stood by punter Matt Dodge all season and the rookie committed the one mistake that cost the Giants in the worst way. Instructed to punt out of bounds, Dodge tried -- and the kick ended up sailing well in bounds, toward Jackson.
Jackson muffed the punt, only to avoid three tackles on his way into the end zone with no time left. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Jackson is the first player in NFL history to score a game-winning touchdown on a punt return on the final play of the fourth quarter.
Duke Calhoun and Bear Pascoe each had a shot at Jackson, but it looked like they had a better chance of catching a bullet. Dodge made a desperate dive attempt that caught nothing but Jackson's dust.
"It is devastating right now and it should be," defensive end Justin Tuck said. "We let one slip out of our hands. Obviously have an opportunity to basically seal up the NFC East today, had it, and lost it. But I know that team. We will bounce back and be ready to play next week and move forward."
The Giants (9-5) have all but lost the NFC East to the Eagles (10-4), but their playoff hopes are still very much alive for a wild card. Next week's game is now the game of the year. The Giants pretty much must beat the Packers in Green Bay on the day after Christmas to make the playoffs.
The big mystery now is whether the Giants can rebound from this utter disaster.
"You know what? What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger," Tuck said. "We are not dead."
It certainly felt like a morgue in the Giants' locker room after the loss. Several players bolted nearly as fast as Jackson did on the punt return.
Defensive tackle Barry Cofield wondered what many who watched the game were thinking afterward.
How will the Giants respond and rebound from blowing a 21-point lead to their chief rival in eight minutes with the NFC East on the line?
"I don't know," Cofield responded. "We will have to see. I have never had to deal with anything like this.
"The proper reaction? I don't think anyone knows. We will try to come together as a team and put it behind us and move on. ... We will see if we are capable of that. It will show next Sunday. We will show up like a team that has moved on or we will show up like a beaten team."
The Giants did get a break when Green Bay (8-6) and Tampa Bay (8-6) both lost. Green Bay's loss ensured that the Giants cannot be eliminated from playoff contention before the final week of the season.
The Saints (10-4), who lead the Giants by one game, are probably going to lock down one wild card.
None of this seemed to matter when the Giants were punishing Vick and the Eagles early on. They outgained Philadelphia 222-74 in total offense in the first half and Vick looked completely ineffective, passing for only 33 yards and rushing for 23 yards by halftime.
"Everybody came in at halftime. ... We were looking like sad puppies," Eagles cornerback Asante Samuel said.
The Giants sacked Vick three times and hit him 11 times for the game. But when it mattered most, they lost sight of Vick. In fact, they couldn't seem to do anything right.
On the Celek touchdown, Tuck dropped back into coverage and Vick hit Celek on a pass over Tuck. Safety Kenny Phillips came up trying to make a play on the ball but whiffed and Celek was off to the end zone.
The Eagles then recovered what might have been the easiest onside kick ever as the Giants started retreating for a kickoff, even though Coughlin said the coverage team was instructed to brace for an onside kick.
Vick ran for a gain of 35 yards and the defensive collapse was well under way. He would add runs of 33 and 22 yards.
"We kind of got into a prevent defense early in the fourth quarter and kind of bend but don't break," Tuck said. "Obviously him being the athlete he is, he made something out of it."
"He got my vote for MVP," Tuck added. "He really showed up in the fourth quarter."
And the Giants disappeared like a piece of trash floating in the swirling wind around the stadium parking lot.
"There is no way we should have lost today," Rolle said. "There is no way to really explain it. It hurts. One of the worst losses I have ever experienced."

Our director Kathleen Warren asked muralist Erik Burke about his experience and vision with the epic Richmark Mural on Capitol Hill this summer - and well, he's good with words, so here's what he said. There's a lot of meat to this mammoth mural! Erik's words below:
"What I found interesting with this mural and murals in general is their subtle yet quick ability to transform people. While the wall is the most obvious object of alteration the people coming in contact with the space took on the larger change. The transformative powers of color, form, and composition is a powerful thing (I suppose only when aligned correctly like when the ghostbusters cross the streams from their proton packs). Take for example Bill (the property owner), a skeptic and naysayer [of our original sketch] who became upbeat and glassy-eyed within a week. Employees of the factory, who saw us initially as flighty and lazy artists were amazed at our work ethic and began documenting the days work. Neighborhood regulars would routinely stop by with encouraging word. A drab block of endless mauve became a new visual soundtrack for about 68 steps.
The overarching topic du jour for people on the Hill is the g word. Glaring and grossly overused - Gentrification. So it is easy for the public to view large public works like this as a real estate developers Trojan Horse. And for good reason. Much transformation has happened up there and very little to the benefit of the long-time inhabitants of Cap Hill. So it was with great sensitivity that we entered into this work trying to stimulate not dominate. However this mural, this 5-lane pile up of color was causing a lot of rubbernecking. Luckily to the effect of joy and wonder instead of being a threat. The sheer scale was threatening enough to us as the artists dangling thirty feet up in power lines but every time someone would walk by they would lighten our mood with affirming expressions.
But what does it say? The question everyone was asking. Once the initial idea was leaked to the press, Bill had SEVERAL talks with me about not wanting to make any political or social commentary that would cause any form of controversy. His request was directly in opposition to our intention to abstractly write "READ UP HANDS DOWN". So to respect his wishes, keep the press on their toes, and have the mural take on a deeper meaning we had to change the saying completely. We had already finished the R E A D and on the opposite side of the wall the O and W. How could we make this work without starting over? Earlier when I reached out to Read for his involvement in the project I mentioned the proximity to the Police precinct and wishing to make something addressing them subtly and poetically since they were by fault our permanent audience. When he came up with Read up hands down I felt it was perfect, albeit a little heavy handed (no pun intended). Of the few Readeresque sayings I brought to the table my favorite was READ WHAT YOU THROW. As if meant to be, the phrase perfectly fit the letters we had already painted and also seemed to be loosely phrased for numerous interpretations.
To me 'read what you throw' is a remix of 'reap what you sow'. While 'reap what you sow' speaks to the affects of dealing with the aftermath of ones doing 'read what you throw' acts as a precursor stating to practice what you preach. Since the phrase is a mashup of reading and throwing it's only natural to think of books. You read books and you get the book thrown at you. By splicing these meanings together we hoped to speak to the police, the policy-makers, and the people. We could all do a little better at reading from our proclamations.
Lastly the use of abstract typography as the main element in this mural connects to the varying 'types' of people that make-up the diversity of Capitol Hill. By creating a mural fueled by varying typography we hoped to illuminate the strength in no type, in all type, in experimental type. Hence the creation of a 35 foot tall H using nothing more that a power drill, a can of spray paint, and duct tape."

About a year ago, a friend studying in Copenhagen sent me a photo of a mural of a bright pink tree with wind blowing through it. While usually not the subject of my choosing, this tree's vibrant almost feather like flora against the rich black background stuck with me for months. I pulled the photo out at meetings, and I think it even incorporated itself into my dreams a few times. As with anything, if I think about it enough, it's time to do something about it. I do it with shoes, I do it with friends, I do it with art – sometimes ideas stick with you for a reason.
Our studio is in the Chinatown/ International District of Seattle (we are technically on the cusp of the SODO neighborhood but we eat our lunch in the ID). Each spring this area is abundant with cherry blossoms, especially on Jackson. Spring is breathtaking and refreshing and seems to make the entire neighborhood feel safer and cleaner and happier. But as soon as the petals fall, the vandalized and chipping walls are revealed yet again, leaving me wishing spring was eternal. So, that's what Urban ArtWorks intends to create: spring, through the eyes and hands of 5 different artists, that will last us longer than the life of the petals.
-Kathleen Warren
This past summer Seattle Works and Urban ArtWorks teamed up to launch the idea – we had funding and 40 volunteers. Our designer Wakuda Studio created a design that was easily executed in one day with many hands. The historic preservation board approved the idea, and it was applauded by neighbors walking by as we painted.
Now that our big volunteer day is over, it's time to slow down and focus on some really unique ideas that can work as part of the series.
We will be accepting work samples through the end of February and hopefully be well under way by the time the real cherry blossoms bloom. Compensation will be based on wall size and design, and will be agreed upon before a final design is required.
Artist submissions
Please send your resume plus relevant work samples via email to: firstname.lastname@example.com –please attach or link an inspiration board to explain any visions you have for this project, if you would like to submit an actual sketch of your idea instead of just inspiration photos that will be welcomed!
In the body of the email or cover letter, please let us know if you have experience working with volunteers or youth and if you would be interesting in/willing to allow others to participate in your mural (this is not required).
We currently have funding for the next two murals and are seeking interested partners to help us fund the others! If you would like to sponsor a mural, please email firstname.lastname@example.com
It's my first official 2015 day at ArtWorks and I've declared Monday mornings a day of writing. A resolution, a routine, whatever you'd like to call it, but so far I'm 1 for 1 and feeling great about it. It's the time after my first coffee, but before the emails, before the voicemails, before our neighbor's studio dog runs in and barks at me like an intruder in my own office- a time to reflect and rev up (and release) my excitement for the week. But mostly before the emails - which I write not completely unlike The Tasmanian Devil.
When I email, usually I'm well caffeinated and deeply excited about an idea that needs to be heard by someone on the other end of my finger tips… lest it escape me forever. One of my peers once called this type of Seattle-art-scene-personality an "unbridled enthusiasm, seldom justified" - I didn't love it. But I tweaked it to fit how I see myself, and use it as my tagline on various social media platforms. Changing "seldom" to "mostly", made it just right. If you are always seldom justified, you need a new line of enthusiasm. And if you are always justified, you need to buy a lottery ticket (and me one too please). I prefer to hover on the spectrum of risk and reward. And to never bridel my enthusiasm, ever.
Like most of us these days, I type fast and furious. I've taken inboxes from the thousands to net zero in a day, without ignoring a single request, misspelling a single word or diluting my truly enthusiastic responses. But the problem is that I, like most, don't like to deal with emails - and like a pesky chin hair, you get rid of one and 3 more come back in its place. Or so I hear.
So at the suggestion of one of my amazing board members, 2015 will be the year of putting thoughts and updates into newsletters and blog posts. Maybe I will switch to tea (every once in a while) and compose myself with unbridled enthusiasm that has aerated through some deep breathing exercises.
Please do sign up for our newsletter if you haven't already, as my next few posts and emails will be about some awesome calls to artists!
Happy New Year to you all!
Kathleen Warren

This is the first time I've ever wished for video on a podcast. With rasslin'.
I don't think either of your events reaches the heights of absurdity that racewalking does, with that crazy hip-rolling. And I say that as a former competitive racewalker (high school German class, Dallas, TX, before any of you were born).
That wasn't hilarious. It was sad.
I actually caught a bit of the racewalking on TV last night - it still looks just as nutty as it did in that film in the 60s set in Japan did.
As opposed to the women's BMX races - now those were cool!
I wonder if we have Esther Williams to thank for all this. If so, THANK YOU, Esther!

A.D. (1985) is a British/Italian miniseries in six parts which adapts the narrative in the Acts of the Apostles. Considered as the third and final installment in a TV miniseries trilogy which began with Moses the Lawgiver (1974) and Franco Zeffirelli's Jesus of Nazareth (1977), it was adapted from Anthony Burgess's novel The Kingdom of the Wicked, which was itself a sequel to Burgess's book Man of Nazareth, on which was based Zeffirelli's movie. The title is the abbreviation for Anno Domini (Medieval Latin, "In the year of the Lord"), as the events occur in the first years of the Christian Era. Wikipedia

Neither Leverkusen nor the referee appeared to notice that Schalke defender Ciprian Marica was stricken in his penalty area when the visitors scored their opening goal.
The Romanian was hurt in a clash with Stefan Kiessling as the Schalke defence cleared away a corner. Leverkusen won back possession, the ball was fed to Lars Bender on the right and his cross was headed in by Simon Rolfes at the far post.
Schalke's players surrounded the referees and jeers rang round the stadium.
"I think it was a foul on Marica but I don't want to comment on whether they should have kicked the ball out of play," said Schalke coach Jens Keller.
Football has long struggled with the issue of when to stop matches to treat injured players.
The problem started when teams began to voluntarily kick the ball out of play to allow injured players to be treated.
Initially seen as a sporting gesture which prompted applause from fans, it soon became an unwritten rule that play should stop when a player went down injured, even if it meant breaking up a promising counter-attack.
This in turn became abused as players feigned injury while still expecting their opponents to kick the ball out.
UEFA has issued guidelines that only the referee can stop play but there were still instances at Euro 2012 of players looking to the referee to stop the game when an opponent went down injured, sometimes kicking it out themselves.
In Italy and Spain, players are still expected to stop play if a someone goes down.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said last year that his players sometimes ignored instructions to keep playing as they were afraid that playing on might make them unpopular.

BASEBALL: NOTEBOOK; July Trades Are Made for Runs in September
By MURRAY CHASS
Published: July 19, 1998
Line up the usual suspects, toss them into the air and see where they land. Texas? Anaheim? Cleveland? San Francisco?
It is that time of season, when contending teams are desperate for starting pitchers and the deadline for trading without waivers looms. That deadline is July 31, and some players can expect to change teams between now and then, more likely closer to then.
Pete Harnisch, Tim Belcher, Bob Tewksbury, Mike Morgan, Jaime Navarro, Juan Guzman, Carlos Perez, Todd Stottlemyre, Randy Johnson. Some of those pitchers could wind up in a division or wild-card race.
Johnson is the most glamorous and most talented of those, but he is not going anywhere unless Seattle ownership removes the shackles from the wrists of General Manager Woody Woodward.
The movement of the others depends on a variety of factors: whether they sign a new contract, whether their team is a contender, whether the offer is tempting enough.
Other players -- relief pitchers and hitters -- could be traded, too. But the most serious shortage on contending teams seems to be -- no surprise -- starting pitching. Consider the Anaheim Angels and the Texas Rangers. They are scrapping for the American League West championship, and both need pitching help, though the Rangers acquired Esteban Loaiza from Pittsburgh on Friday.
''I am doggedly going to pursue anybody who has anything we like,'' said Bill Bavasi, the Angels' general manager.
''I have to keep on their tail, because on the 28th or 29th, they might call back and say, 'We've changed our mind -- let's make a deal.' If I don't continue to be a pest, I might miss out.''
Doug Melvin, the Rangers' general manager, has a board on a wall of his office. One column is a sellers' list, the other a buyers' list -- that is, the clubs that might be willing to trade players and those that are pursuing players. Melvin's Rangers and the Angels are listed among the buyers.
''We're both looking for pitchers,'' Melvin said. ''There's not a lot of quality pitching out there. You might have to take a chance on getting a good arm and hope he wins some games.''
The Rangers jettisoned one starter last month, inducing St. Louis to take Bobby Witt by offering to pay all but $300,000 of his $3.25 million salary. John Burkett has a 5-10 record, Darren Oliver a 5-7 mark. The team's two most effective starters, Rick Helling and Aaron Sele, gave up a combined 13 earned runs and 19 hits in eight and two-thirds innings on successive nights last week.
The Angels have had most of their rotation on the disabled list much of the season. Ken Hill and Jack McDowell are still there; Allen Watson rejoined the team after the All-Star Game break, though not in the rotation. They are trying to win with a rookie, Jarrod Washburn, and a reclamation project, Steve Sparks.
It is conceivable that the two teams could pursue the same pitcher and wind up in a bidding war.
''If we do, we probably won't know it,'' Bavasi said. ''It's very seldom the other general manager tells you who you're bidding against. In this case they're likely to drop a hint to make me and Doug nervous. If we both bid foolishly, I hope they get him.''
Deciding When to Let Go
At this time of year, it's a sellers' market. Sometimes, though, the sellers do not want to sell. That is the Mariners' stance on Randy Johnson at the moment.
''Our position,'' General Manager Woody Woodward said, ''is the same as it has been since we announced that we would not be trading Randy and that we were to have no further comments.''
Until that June 2 announcement, the Mariners were prepared to trade Johnson to Los Angeles for Ismael Valdes and Wilton Guerrero plus a relief pitcher, or to another team that might have jumped in with a better offer. But the Japanese segment of the club's ownership, who do not intend to sign Johnson, inexplicably yanked him off the market, and he remains in that lame-duck state.
Many clubs have also been waiting for the Cincinnati Reds to make a decision on Pete Harnisch.
''On Aug. 1, either he will have signed an extension with us or he will have been traded,'' General Manager Jim Bowden said. ''We've had serious trade discussions with eight major league teams, six of them contenders, regarding Pete, and we're weighing those deals as compared to signing him.''
Bowden said he will balance the amount it would take to sign Harnisch against offers the Reds receive.
''If I was able to make a trade like the Jeff Shaw deal, which will help us in the future, we would make that deal,'' he said, referring to the trade that sent the Reds' closer to the Dodgers. ''But we'd also like Pete on this club because he's a good leader for young players.''
Todd Stottlemyre, who also can be a free agent after the season, would make an attractive addition to some contender's rotation, but the Cardinals would prefer to keep him.
''Our plan is to try to sign him,'' said General Manager Walt Jocketty, who traded for Mark McGwire a year ago, then surprised everyone by signing him. ''I don't know if we can get him signed between now and the trading deadline, and I don't think we can get him through waivers. So I don't think we'll be trading him. Unless someone blows us away.''
Other general managers addressed the prospects of trading their pitchers who have been mentioned.

Yep, that totally screams "Battlefield" to me.
Yeah, I'm done being sarcastic. I've played something like four or five games... The whole thing screams "Call of Duty Multiplayer" to me a lot more than Battlefield. I mean, the only Battlefield I've owned or played is BF3... Which, I honestly find quite amazing and a far more balanced multiplayer than most games I've played in recent years...
Slayer is slayer regardless of game played. Or "Deathmatch" if you prefer. I find that when you try to play an Objective gametype in Farcry 3... Well, it's pretty much Call of Duty all the way. It's basically "Slayer", with an objective to accomplish, which you can do by yourself if you've equipped yourself well (good perks and good gun). In Battlefield, when playing an objective gametype, I've rarely ever been able to win the whole thing by myself. Sure, it'll be an 8 on 8 or whatever it is... But it's difficult to take/hold an objective BY YOURSELF. You have Squads so you can coordinate efforts a bit so that you can manage your objectives better. If you have a team that doesn't work well together or at all... Well, you're going to get stomped, no matter HOW GOOD you are at the game, against a team who does work together. Trust me, I've seen it lots of times. Some guy cruising in a Jet with over 100 kills for the match, and his team lost because he just wasn't "good" where it counted.
Farcry 3 strikes me as more the "lone wolf" type play. A really good player can take and hold all the objectives himself, especially if he's killing in two or three shots. In fact, I played on a team where a guy did just that. It was some kind of "hold the territories" gametype and he just kept running from objective to objective, killing everyone there, capping it, defending it for a bit, then moving to the next to repeat. If he started losing an objective and he was nearby, he'd drop in and kill everyone, then go on his way. He had some kind of SMG that just murdered you in 3 hits and it took the better part of a quarter to half of a clip of AK47 to even kill him.
Farcry 3 reminds me WAY MORE of Call of Duty than Battlefield.
"It's worth remembering that all reviews are subjective personal opinions and if you personally enjoy the game, then they shouldn't get to you. Unless there's a dispicable nagging little doubt in the back of your mind that maybe you're not having as much fun as you've convinced yourself you're having. And won't go away no matter how many times you try to slap it away with weak excuses."

I don't know what I'm missing here----I don't find any information anywhere about how to use the plug-in. There are no usage files, no instructions, nothing that I can find.
I am using WP 2.8.6 with the Thesis theme. I want to add a series of images for each post as a slideshow. My preference would be to put them in the Thesis provided "multimedia box" but I could use a "feature box" and remove the multimedia box as an alternative.
The problem is I have not idea how to even start the procedure to make it happen. I can't find any documentation, either on the plug-in page, WP or here.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

|Scientific classification

Lacepède, 1803
|Over 160 valid species.
Chaenothorax Cope, 1878
Corydoras is a genus of freshwater in the armored catfish family (Corydoradinae subfamily) and are commonly referred to as corydoras, cories or cory catfish.
The name Corydoras is derived from the Greek kory (helmet) and doras (skin).[1] Corydoras is by far the largest genus of Neotropical fishes with more than 160 species.[1] In addition, many variants exist.[citation needed] It is the sole genus in the tribe Corydoradini.[2] C. difluviatilis is recognized as the basalmost species of Corydoradini, exhibiting several plesiomorphic features compared to the other species of Corydoras.[2][3] The type species for this genus is Corydoras geoffroy.[1] Several hundred Corydoras species are not yet classified, but kept by aquarists. These species are given 'C-numbers', originally devised by Hans-Georg Evers for the German fishkeeping magazine DATZ in 1993. In 2006, 153 C-numbers had been assigned, of which 32 had been assigned appropriate scientific names.[4]
The species C. barbatus, C. macropterus and C. prionotos have been reclassified into the genus Scleromystax.[2] Brochis had been differentiated from Corydoras due to the higher number of dorsal fin rays; however, Brochis has recently been suggested to be a synonym of Corydoras.[2] This is contested and has not been universally accepted. The sixray corydoras belongs in Aspidoras.[5]
The species of Corydoras usually have more restricted areas of endemism than other callichthyids, but the area of distribution of the entire genus almost equals the area of distribution of the family, except for Panama where Corydoras is not present.[6] Corydoras species are distributed in South America where found east of the Andes to the Atlantic coast, from Trinidad to the Río de la Plata drainage in northern Argentina.[7]
Species assigned to Corydoras display a broad diversity of body shapes and coloration.[3] Corydoras are small fish, ranging from 25 to 120 mm (0.98 to 4.72 in) in SL.[7]
Corydoras are generally found in smaller-sized streams, along the margins of larger rivers, in marshes and ponds.[7] They are native to slow-moving and almost still (but seldom stagnant) streams and small rivers of South America where the water is shallow and very clear.[citation needed] Most species are bottom-dwellers, foraging in sand, gravel, or detritus.[7] The banks and sides of the streams are covered with a dense growth of plants, and this is where the corys are found. They inhabit a wide variety of water types but tend toward soft, neutral to slightly acidic or slightly alkaline pH and 5-10 degrees of hardness. They can tolerate only a small amount of salt (some species tolerate none at all) and do not inhabit environments with tidal influences.[citation needed] They are often seen in shoals.[7] Most species prefer being in groups and many species are found in schools or aggregations of hundreds or even thousands of individuals, usually of a single species, but occasionally with other species mixed in.[citation needed] Unlike most catfishes which are nocturnal, Corydoras species are active during the daytime.[7]
Their main food is bottom-dwelling insects and insect larvae and various worms, as well as some vegetable matter. Although no corys are piscivorous, they will eat flesh from dead fishes. Their feeding method is to search the bottom with their sensory barbels and suck up food items with their mouth, often burying their snout up to their eyes, one of the reasons a soft sand substrate is preferable.
In several species of Corydoras, it has been observed that the fishes, after initial evasive reaction to threat, lie still; this is suggested to be a form of cryptic behavior. However, it is also argued that most species do not have cryptic coloration nor freezing behavior and continue to exist.[7]
A few Otocinclus species (O. affinis, O. flexilis, O. mimulus and O. xakriaba) are considered to be Batesian mimics of certain Corydoras species (C. diphyes, C. garbei, C. nattereri and C. paleatus, respectively). These Corydoras species have bony plates of armor and strong spines as defenses, making them less palatable; by mimicking these species in size and coloration, Otocinclus avoid predation.[7]
A unique form of insemination has been described in Corydoras aeneus. When these fish reproduce, the male will present his abdomen to the female. The female will attach her mouth to the male's genital opening, creating the well-known "T-position" many Corydoras exhibit during courtship. The female will then drink the sperm. The sperm rapidly moves through her intestines and is discharged together with her eggs into a pouch formed by her pelvic fins. The female can then swim away and deposit the pouch somewhere else alone. Because the T-position is exhibited in other species than just C. aeneus, it is likely that this behavior is common in the genus.[8]
In the aquarium[edit]
The Corydoras genus is well known among aquarists for its many ornamental species.[9] They are well suited to tropical freshwater community aquariums, as they get along well with other species and are not at all aggressive. Corydoras are quite timid and are recommended to be kept in shoals of three upwards. Corys are mostly bottom feeders, so they should be offered sinking pellets as well as supplements of live and frozen foods. If flake foods are used, care should be taken to prevent all food from being eaten by faster moving fish at the higher levels of the tank.
Most corys prefer soft, acidic water. They can, however, tolerate a wide range of water conditions, including temperatures that are cooler than tropical. They do not do well in fish tanks with high nitrate levels. This ion leads to the infection of the barbels, which will shorten and become useless. The barbels may also be affected by constant contact with a sharp substrate. They are more likely to thrive if there is an open area of substrate on the bottom of the tank where they can obtain submerged food.
It is a myth that salt cannot be used on this species of fish as a means of parasite medication. Salt can be added to the water of the Corydoras catfish in order to rid the fish of ich.
These fish are fairly easy to keep, being peaceful, hardy, active, and entertaining. Occasionally they will dart to the surface, sticking their snout above the water for an instant to take a "breath" of air. This behavior is perfectly normal and is not an indication that anything is wrong with the fish. However, If this is done in excess, it can indicate poor water conditions.
Where investigated Corydoras sp. have been shown to be diurnal and crepuscular rather than nocturnal and activity can even peak at twilight.[10] Corydoras are very good choices for a community aquarium, and are widely kept throughout the world. Their longevity in the aquarium is noteworthy; C. aeneus is said to have lived 27 years in captivity and 20 years is not too uncommon.
There are currently 167 recognized species in this genus:
