Unlike most Corydoras that stick to the bottom, Pygmy Cories are often seen swimming mid-water in tight, playful schools — a delightful and unusual behaviour that makes them endlessly entertaining to watch. Their tiny size and peaceful nature make them perfect for nano and planted aquariums.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eCorydoras pygmaeus\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brazil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdult size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 2.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peaceful; excellent community fish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTank size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimum 40 L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Omnivore — micro pellets, sinking wafers, live and frozen foods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22–26°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.0–7.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest kept:\u003c\/strong\u003e In groups of 8 or more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003ePygmy Cories thrive in soft, well-filtered water with fine substrate and plenty of plants.
