I am currently setting up a 75 gallon Discus Tank along with other fish. I will using corys as my clean up helpers. Not only will they help out with clean up I also enjoy the look/activity they bring. Right now I am looking for something that does not get very large in size but is still large enough not to get eaten by the discus. Although it is something that probably won't happen it is a possibility. In previous tanks I kept Corydoras Pygmaeus. As i said before I am looking for something relatively small but not on the dwarf size... so out with the pygmaeus.

Most of the websites I searched through just list corys wtih a general size. Basically if it isn't a dwarf then it will be 2.5" - 3.5" or something comparable.
Are there any specific corys that do not grow above 2" but above 1"? I know I am being very picky but if I can get the perfect fit I would be very happy.

the corydoras habrosus might be a little better fit, i've heard they get slightly larger than the pygmaeus, but i think that they don't spend as much time on the bottom as in the middle level of the tank, so that might be something to consider.
