The Salt and Pepper Pygmy Corydoras catfish (Corydoras habrosus) is a relatively small species of the Corydoras catfish family and are ideal for small aquariums. They are peaceful and will school together with its own kind that is compatible with most nano aquarium animals. Often times, they will swim in the middle water section rather than staying constantly at the bottom. Interestingly, the Salt and Pepper Corydoras will dart up to the surface to take in oxygen similar to labryinth fishes. However, their interesting behaviour is not yet entirely understood as they are not considered labyrinth fishes.
