The Albino Pygmy Corydoras is a rare and charming nano catfish loved by aquarium hobbyists for its peaceful nature, small size, and active schooling behavior. This albino variety features a pale pinkish-white body with striking red eyes, making it a unique addition to planted and community aquariums.

Unlike larger Corydoras species, Albino Pygmy Corydoras remain very small and spend their time actively exploring all levels of the aquarium. They are excellent scavengers that help consume leftover food while adding movement and character to your tank.

Although offered individually, these fish are happiest when kept in groups of 6 or more, where their natural schooling behavior can be fully observed.
