To return only an X number of records, use the functions limitToFirst or limitToLast.

limitToFirst will return the first X records and limitToLast the latest X records, based on the ordered data applied.

For example, the query below will return the last 2 records, considering the orderm by column Weight.

curl 'https://dinosaur-facts.firebaseio.com/dinosaurs.json?orderBy="weight"&limitToLast=2&print=pretty'

Now to do that

I want to dynamically pick up every 2 records

that you wrote in the comments, can use the functions startAt and endAt. Whereas your records will be ordered according to a certain value, a startAt equal to X and endAt equal to Y will return the records from the sorting value X to the value Y.

Then in this case you will need to sort your data based on a numerical sequence (1, 2, 3, ...) and do startAt=1&endAt=2, startAt=3&endAt=5, and so on.

See the documentation links that can help: COMPLEX FILTERING
