It is not a cory, but a baby Brochis sp. Most likely splendens.

Wow! The transformation from a juvenile to an adult is so dramatic!

I think these are normally labelled as "green cory".

Yes. The first time I saw them I also went "Wow! New species!" and then kept wondering how come so cheap for a new species.

Yup. CK Yeo is right. Here's a picture of an even younger specimen.
This juvenile often makes it appearance in the shops for about S$1 and unsuspecting aquarist buys them, not realising that they can potentially grow up to 12 cm, although I have never seen one more than 9 cm. 6 to 8 cm specimens are not uncommon.
Cheers,
I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?
Never create what you can't control
