  1. I used the fine black gravel from PetSmart, the same as my 29 gallon. I have found it’s small enough for the Cories to filter through and still allows most ‘easy’ plants to grow. I also have about 50% out of the substrate on decorations and stuff. It is an experiment so far with the Pygmys but they seem to be doing well so far
  2. Thanks all! It is going to be strictly a planted Cory tank (with some inverts), my favorite type of fish! I wanted to do Pygmy cats so i could do a 10 gallon. It may also occasionally act as a holding tank for molly fry. The corydoras habrosus have been great so far, does anyone know if they stay smaller than the Cory pygmaeus? They are currently shorter and skinnier than the two and I’m not sure if they are just less developed or if they’re a smaller fish generally! Thanks again, i appreciate the replies!
  3. First pic is what i suspect is the Pygmy and second is one of the salt and pepper
  4. Hey all! I purchased 4 Pygmy Cory cats about three weeks ago, from my LFS, they were the first fish in a new 10 gallon set up. They have settled in nicely and seem very happy! i called the LFS today to see if they had more Pygmy cats in stock and reserved 2 so i would have a school of 6. Upon returning from picking up the 2nd batch of corys and starting the acclimation process i noticed that i actually have two very different looking catfish. I now believe, after some research, that the first 4 were actually Salt and Pepper corys and the 2nd two are true Pygmy corys. I was wondering if the six of them are sustainable in the 10 gallon or if i need to return the 2 Pygmy and get my hands on two more salt and pepper corys. Thanks for any insight!
