Yep, definately a corydoras pygmaeus! They do best when kept in a small shoal, anything more than 5, otherwise they tend to be less active. Real characters, I have 11 at the moment! They eat flake, but love BBS and daphnia, (live or frozen). :D Males grow to 2cm, females get to 3cm.
Hope this helps,
Hippyguy :D
