Unlike most Corydoras which are strictly bottom dwellers, Pygmy Corys are active mid-water swimmers that school together in shimmering groups, darting playfully through plants and open water. Their tiny silver bodies with a bold black lateral stripe make them a captivating addition to nano and planted aquariums, and they pair beautifully with small tetras, rasboras, and shrimp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTank Size: Minimum 30L; best kept in groups of 10 or more — highly social and most active in larger schools; small groups become shy and reclusive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater Parameters: pH 6.0–7.5 | Temp 22–26°C | Soft to moderately hard water preferred\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiet: Omnivorous — quality micro pellets and nano sinking wafers; supplement with frozen or live micro worms, daphnia, and baby brine shrimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperament: Peaceful; ideal nano community fish — safe with shrimp and other small, non-aggressive species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTank Setup: Planted aquarium with fine substrate, open swimming areas, and gentle filtration; mid-water swimmers that appreciate plants to shelter among\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkill Level: Beginner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax Size: 3cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chloe's Aquatic Centre","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52249437307202,"sku":null,"price":10.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/0128\/8258\/files\/FullSizeRender_314fcdce-8754-47ed-8353-ce16fe0b318e.jpg?v=1773015714","url":"https:\/\/chloesaquaticcentre.com.au\/products\/pygmy-corydoras-1cm","provider":"Chloe's Aquatic Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
