    also known as Dainty Corydoras or Salt & Pepper Cory.

    Spotted at Ben/TiongBahru's - pricetag $2.50.

    For those who like one of the smallest Corydoras.

    This's only the second time I've seen them around. First time was in a LFS in Bishan.

    Hmm...

    kelvin, you can see a pic of it here: http://www.scotcat.com/photo_gallery_page.html.

    cos of their size, they look very cute. but they're not as hardy, have to be careful lah.

    unlike Corydoras pygmaeus which though small, look abit like otos, c. habrosus still have the shape of a normal cory.[]

    kelvin, c. habrosus super-cute, hor?[]

    yeah, $1 in faraway limchukang, $2.50 in lfs! they're cute, but slightly on the fragile size...

    i may try to keep them again, one fine day, but right now i've moved my c. similis from the 16inch tank to the 1.5ft tank, switched with the c. aeneus green lasers. maybe when the similis are bigger and go into my 3ft, then...

    dea, right, the pygmies look like aspidoras. forgot my ABCs! but have you seen any aspidoras in singapore lfs? i've not noticed them around (hmm, maybe only once, sometime back), that's why the closest i thought was otos...![]
