  1. Pandaka pygmaea is no longer the smallest fish in the world.

    Scientists have discovered a fish living in forest swamps on the Indonesian island of Sumatra that is only 7.9mm long.

    The species of fish belongs to the carp family and is called Paedocypris progenetica . It is the world's smallest vertebrate or backboned animal.


  2. It is a freshwater fish - found in streams and rivers.

  3. The dwarf pygmy goby (Pandaka pygmaea) is a tropical freshwater fish of the family Gobiidae. It is one of the smallest fish in the world by mass, and is also one of the shortest freshwater fish. Mature males can reach up to 1.1 cm, while the females can grow up to 1.5 cm. Average weight is from 4 to 5 mg. It is known as bia and tobias in the Philippines.
