Helpful details, without the guesswork.

What makes a good tankmate?

Small peaceful tetras, rasboras, shrimp, and snails are listed as compatible companions. Avoid aggressive or fast-feeding fish.

What do Pygmy Cories eat?

They are omnivorous. The current shop recommends quality flakes, pellets, frozen foods, and occasional live foods.

What happens if there is a shipping issue?

The live arrival policy asks for a clear photo of the fish in its sealed bag, emailed within one hour of the carrier's delivery time.

Can I ask about overnight shipping?

Yes. Bob's current policy says overnight shipping can be quoted by email as an upgrade from the displayed two-day shipping cost.
