{"product_id":"corydoras-albino-pygmy-cory-catfish-1cm","title":"Albino Pygmy Cory Catfish","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAlbino Pygmy Cory – care and compatible tank mates\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eGastrodermus pygmaeus (Corydoras pygmaeus)\u003c\/em\u003e. Pygmy Corys are tiny social fish around 3 cm standard length. They hover in mid-water and rest on leaves as well as forage on the bottom. Albino Pygmy is the same listed species with its own label; it is not an Albino Bronze Cory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWater and aquarium planning\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecies guidance is 22–26°C, pH 6.4–7.4 and preferably below 8 dGH. Our main mixed plan uses 24–25°C, pH 6.5 and 3–5 dGH. The Salt and Pepper Cory option has its own 26°C plan; southern Hastatus has a seasonal 22–25°C plan. Do not combine those different plans into one tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep at least 10, preferably more, of this exact dwarf Cory species. Our mixed plan starts around 90 × 40 cm with a modest small-fish shoal; use 120 × 45 cm for larger groups, multiple bottom groups or conditional companions. Provide fine clean sand, planted resting leaves, sheltered low-flow areas and unobstructed surface access. A different Cory species does not replace its own group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGroup, feeding and precautions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOffer micro-sized sinking foods plus small aquatic live\/frozen foods, including suspended foods for mid-water Gastrodermus. Verify individual feeding; these fish are not cleaners. Protect eggs and fry separately. Small sale fish need quiet quarantine and grow-out, not immediate placement with adult community fish. Avoid Angels, Oscars, larger gouramis, predatory catfish and any fish capable of swallowing a Cory; defensive spines can harm both animals. Stop a combination for stalking, persistent chasing or feeding exclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecommendations are assessed with Albino Pygmy Cory individually, not as a ready-made combined stocking list. Check current and adult fish sizes, quarantine arrivals and keep a separation option.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ABQUATICS","offers":[{"title":"PACK OF ONE","offer_id":67756896649530,"sku":"A2637S","price":27.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"PACK OF TEN","offer_id":67756896682298,"sku":"A2638S","price":249.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/5091\/6926\/files\/corydoras-pygmy-albino-freshwater-fish-3-tails-corydoras-9717824.jpg?v=1792627574","url":"https:\/\/abquatics.shop\/products\/corydoras-albino-pygmy-cory-catfish-1cm","provider":"ABQUATICS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
