      Well, there's a tank full of them now!

      These guys are having a ball in my planted tank! Perfect sized cories too, the others that I got rid off would uproot everything but these guys are way smaller.

          Ahh, I love habrosus!! I've been waiting for them to get some pygmies (dwarf, whatever you want to call them)! I have about 4 in one of my tank, cory pygmaeus, I've had them for a year or two now, but they're still really shy. I hope by this weekend Village still has some of these guys, they'll probably help the pygmies get over the shyness.

          Oh, and those cories you got rid of are doing great! The panda's still a little shy, but the rabauti is all over the place.

            FYI -Small as these guys are, they will still eat verry small fry if given the opportunity......

              mzungu. glad to hear they are doing good!

              phishphreek. im wouldnt doubt them.



              i have these guys in my planted tank cause i like cories but the bigger ones uprooted too many plants but these little guys are a hoot to watch and are too small to uproot the big plants so they are perfect! i got ten of them and all ten are running around all over the tank!

                A few years back I bought some to clean up the gunk on the bottom of my fry tanks and they did a good job but they cleaned up the fry too.

                  I bought 6 of these myself for my 20g planted tank.  Love them and I don't have fry so it's not an issue.
