    Illness, corydoras. 2 vids provided.

    I added another video to see if this other behavior can help pinpoint it. Other than the behavior you'll see in the video the fish sometimes will also surface for air multiple times within just a few minutes but they will do this for a couple hours and then it will stop. You'll see a couple of...

    Illness, corydoras. 2 vids provided.

    The reason for starting at 1/4 to 1/2 dose of paraguard was because it says for more sensitive (scaleless fish such as corydoras) to start at a quarter to a half a dose and work your way up to a full dose as long as the fish don't seem stress at the lower doses. So my plan was start at 1/4 and...

    Corydoras flashing, possible bully issue

    Does this look like velvet? I was looking at my fish last night and noticed alot of gold coloration on all my cories that I've never noticed before. It could have always and been there and maybe now since they are not feeling well maybe I'm noticing things I didnt noticed before. In the video...

    Will keep the paragraphs in mind, sorry about that Colin. I try very hard to keep the water quality at a healthy level. I have a wc and filter media cleaning program and also do weekly siphoning. I test my water with the api master kit every other day just as a precaution since my tank is...

    Corydoras flashing, possible bully issue

    Sorry for the long reply. Im just trying to pick your brain at this point. I know it's hard to diagnose an issue unless your seeing everything for yourself. But I never allow my nitrates to get above 20ppm. I do a wc once a week at about 35% unless my nitrates get to 20 and if so I do wc but can...

    Hey guys, so I'm dealing with another issue. The fins on one of my albinos are starting to dertiorate, not like rot when it looks tattered but almost as if a bite was taken out but my gourami is no longer in the tank and there are only cories in there. My wife just texted me as well and said...

    Understood. Most the meds I've already had in the last year or two. the only ones that I just acquired were the the paraguard and prazipro. But I'll take your guys advice and give the heat method a try for 2 weeks and we'll see what Happens. Thanks again for the advice guys

    Corydoras flashing, possible bully issue

    and I guess my other question would be is still be ich without any white spots or without any other changes to the fish's appearance because I don't see any over activity in the Slime coat nor do I see any white spots at all. Nor do I see any difference in the gills or Gill plates or really...

    And does the loss of color and rapid breathing on my two young pandas point to ich as well?

    Corydoras flashing, possible bully issue

    How slowly should I increase the temp and how much salt should I use since cories are more sensitive? it's only the cories in the tank, the gourami is no with me, he was just causing too much stress in my tank. I like the gouramis but my two oldest cories ivr had for almost 3 yrs and I could...

    Corydoras flashing on substrate

    Sorry, correction to the end of my post...but I meant I could "not" support another 30 to 40 gallon on top of my current 40b tank for the gourami so I took the gourami back to the pet store because i it was causing to much stress to my cory cats.
