They are great for nano tanks together with the hastatus and pygmy. I did bred all 3 of them but they are a pain in the back side when it comes to raising the fry

This being the smallest corys that you can get its all down to the size of the fry and the challenge to feed them.
The females grow a bit bigger then the males and they lay around 15-25 eggs the size of a pin head, not quite that big but that's the closest I could think of. The fry are very small, you'll need a magnifying glass to see them, first food green water/infusoria and slowly work your way up the food chain. Fun to breed, not worth it if you do it to sale them.

Great thanks, haven't bred cory's in about 20 years, all of a sudden I've taken a real liking to them again from I got the pleco tanks running, would love to breed these wee guys for myself to add to another tank as finding them great wee fish to watch and very active.
