The Pygmy Corydoras is a charming and peaceful bottom-dweller with a sleek silver body and a distinct black horizontal stripe. Unlike other corydoras, this tiny species is more active in the mid-water as well as along the substrate. Their social nature and small size make them a perfect addition to nano and community aquariums.
