- ✅ The Pygmy Corydoras is a great nano catfish endemic to the Rio Basin in Brazil. These catfish are great additions to nano aquariums do to their small size and schooling behavior like other corydoras catfish
- ✅ Traditionally, just one type of small Corydoras was considered to exist (Corydoras hastatus). However, the Pygmy Cory variety was identified in the early 1900s after discovering that several varieties had been misinterpreted
- ✅ They are silver in color with one black line through the center of the body. Pygmy Corydoras can be shy so they need appropriate tank mates and should be kept in groups of at least 5 or more
- ✅ Pygmy Corydoras often max out in size of just over an inch and are a great community fish for aquariums with fish of similar size and activity level
- ✅ We feed our Pygmy Corydoras a mix of frozen foods including daphnia, baby brine and cyclops. We occasionally feed them algae wafers. Will accept live foods if prepared
- ✅ Our Tank Parameters Ph: 7.2 to 7.5 Gh: 8 to 16 Kh: 4 to 7 TDS: 180 to 250 Temp: 70 to 74
- ✅ Tank Recommendations Leaves: Indian Almond or Guava Wood: Mopani or Malaysian Cones: Alder Cones Substrate: Sand or soft soil, rough substrate can wear down barbels
- ✅ The Pygmy Cory Catfish is a very peaceful schooling fish that is compatible with most nano aquarium animals. It might eat dwarf shrimp fry, but is generally safe to keep with adult dwarf shrimp. It is a classic scavenger and will inhabit and feed at the aquarium floor, which should be comprised of sand or smooth gravel
- ✅ Very coarse substrate can damage its delicate barbels and underbelly. This fish is otherwise undemanding as it will accept most dry and frozen foods. It is adaptable to most tropical freshwater conditions as long as standard regular maintenance is performed and sudden changes are avoided
- ✅ This species is very popular with many shrimp keepers due to its exceptionally small size and peaceful disposition.
