I just got back from the LFS and finally found pygmy corydoras there. I've wanted some for a very, very, very long time and never found any locally. They had about half a dozen of them for .99 a piece so of course I cleaned their tank out. I've never seen cory cats quite this small. I think the biggest one is approximately 1" long and most of them are about half that size.
I finally found pygmy corys. Very, very cool fish.

Lucky you, and such a great price! I've also wanted some of those for a long time. On the bright side, I found out somebody locally is breeding them, they are just dot size right now; maybe he'll sell me some one day.
Congrats on the fish! I almost picked up a few of them once. It was the only time I had seen them in a store, but at the time I wasn't prepared for new fish. They sure were fun to watch, zooming all around the middle levels of the water and resting on the plants.
I recently managed to get my hands on 8 little Aspidoras pauciradiatus, which had been on my wish list for a while. They are quite similar to the dwarf cories (habrosus), and will only reach an inch and a half at the most. They're great little fish and I can sit and watch them for hours.

You have albino pygmies? That must be a very rare find, I've never even heard of them before. Are you able to tell their sexes?
