Dwarf Blue Tetras (Tyttocharax cochui) are a true nano fish only obtaining a fully grown size around 1 inch. Their blue and silvery iridescence makes them a great candidate for brightly lit smaller planted aquariums. They do best in groups of 5-10 or more and accept most small prepared foods.
The Croaking Gourami is a colorful dwarf species of Gourami native to much of Southeast Asia, named for its ability to produce a unique croaking or purring sound, typically during spawning. The largest species in the genus Trichopsis, the Croaking Gourami is found in a wide range of shallow water habitats, from acidic blackwater swamps to quiet slow-moving clearwater creeks, usually found close to stands of aquatic plants or submerged vegetation. In the aquarium, they are an ideal resident of nano planted tanks, they are best kept in groups of 5 or more and make perfect tankmates for many of the popular species of microrasbora found throughout Southeast Asia in similar habitats.
One of the smallest species of Cory and an ideal, active schooling fish for the aquarium, the true Pygmy Cory is found in the middle and upper Amazon and Napo rivers in Colombia, Brazil, and Peru. In the wild, they are usually found in shallow stretches of whitewater or clearwater creeks or seasonally flooded forest. This species is a true shoaling fish which aggregates in groups of hundreds to thousands in nature, and unlike most Corydoras will spend a substantial amount of time swimming in the water column rather than on the substrate. In the aquarium, they will exhibit this same ‘swarming’ behavior and constant activity if kept in groups of 10 or more. With their small adult size and compatibility with almost any other small fish or invertebrate, they are an extremely popular addition to planted and shrimp tanks. Our tank raised Albino Pygmy Corys are bred in captivity and will adapt to aquarium life easily, making them a good choice for beginner to intermediate hobbyists.
The Dwarf Glass Tetra (Cyanogaster cf. noctivaga), also known as the Bluebelly Night Wanderer or Glass Darter Tetra, is a tiny and attractive Characin. The name Bluebelly Night Wanderer comes from iridescent blue patches that both males and females have near their stomachs and at the base of their tail. These fish reach less than an inch long as adults, making them a perfect choice for those looking for a freshwater nano fish!
One of the most popular of all the species of Cory Cats in the hobby, the Panda Cory originates from the waters of the Rio Ucayali in Peru but is now bred on a large scale for the aquarium trade. Wild collected specimens like these are only rarely collected and imported but can be very sought after to provide genetic diversity to aquarium strains. Small, active, and with an unmistakable pattern, Panda Corys are ideal for nearly any small to medium peaceful community aquarium. Like most Corydoras, they are an active schooling species that will do best in a group of at least 5 fish. Peaceful and hardy, they prefer a fine sand substrate, well-oxygenated water and temperatures in the 75-80F range.
One of the most popular of all the species of Cory Cats in the hobby, the Panda Cory originates from the waters of the Rio Ucayali in Peru but is now bred on a large scale for the aquarium trade so wild specimens are rare. The longfin variant is a selectively bred trait not found in the wild. Small, active, and with an unmistakable pattern, Panda Corys are ideal for nearly any small to medium peaceful community aquarium. Like most Corydoras, they are an active schooling species that will do best in a group of at least 5 fish. Peaceful and hardy, they prefer a fine sand substrate, well-oxygenated water and temperatures in the 75-80F range.

A tiny but attractive and interesting Characin found in Amazon tributaries around Iquitos, Peru, the Glass Darter or Hummingbird Tetra is uncommon in the hobby but sought after by planted and nano tank hobbyists due to its small adult size and vibrant color. It is found in shallow, slow moving water usually over a sand substrate and prefers warm, acidic water in the aquarium. A loosely schooling fish, it is found in groups in the wild and will do best in a group of 10 or more. Given its small size and somewhat shy nature, they should only be kept with similarly sized peaceful tankmates. This species is sexually dimorphic, with males showing elongated, bright red fins.
A rarely seen nano-sized tetra from West Africa, the Adonis or Spotted Tetra is found in shallow, warm waters, usually in large shoals. A peaceful schooling fish, their care requirements are similar to most small tetra species and they are a hardy and colorful community fish.
A rarely seen nano-sized tetra from West Africa, the Jelly Bean Tetra is found in shallow, warm waters in Equatorial Guinea and Cameroon. A peaceful schooling fish, their care requirements are similar to most small tetra species and they are a hardy and colorful community fish.
