By & large corys aren't colourful at all with them being mostly browns, greys, blacks etc.

The gold laser is a great suggestion for one with a splash of colour or the green laser. There are some beautiful patterned species but not much in the way of colour. Have a look in cat-e-log. & see if there is anything you fancy

There are quite a few different corys, and it really comes down to personal taste.

The (Yellow Cat) has yellow fins and tail, so that's unusual.

It's fairly uncommon, however. It would be far easier to find a gold laser or green laser.
