Hi @CorydorasEthan! I have a question about pygmy corys and a juuli cory. I have one of each. how big do juuli corys get? mine is about a year old in my hands and is only about 2 inches long. Same question about the pygmy. i just wanna know how big they get with the age. also, do they need a school of 3 fish, or are they ok by themselves? just curious. Thanks!

Hey there! Julii cories (Corydoras trilineatus) get to around 2 inches long, while pygmy cories (Corydoras pygmaeus) grow around only 1 inch long. Also, yes, Corydoras are schooling fish, and prefer to be housed in larger groups. I would recommend a bare minimum of three of each species, but the more the merrier. I find that pygmy cories are especially shy and require larger groups of around ten to display natural schooling behaviors. I hope this helps!
