Help! Panda Cory Floating Upside Down

[ant0]

Basically he's floating at the top of the tank, he can still move and is breathing okay. I've tried to knock hiom up the right way but he just rolls over Is he done for? time to bring out the ice?

I've been treating the tank for whitespot recently and as a result the temp has been higher than normal (26-27degrees). I've dropped it to 25 now as it seems to be clearing up and i'm aware high temps are no good for pandas

no advice to offer really.... It dosnt sound good

I wouldn't ice him though... We've had fish pull through when i didnt think the would...

I actually put 2 x-ray tetras in the freezer last week - then felt so bad I took them out and setup a bucket (with heater & mature filter) to try and treat them in.... they are still with me today and looking better

any idea whats wrong with him? hardest part of fish keeping is having to put them out their misery

Corys are very prone to bacterial infections and this cory sounds bad.
Has he bloated up.
Once fish roll on there back not much hope, some do recover but not many.

no bloating, i've put him out of his misery. Only got 3 pandas now

If he looks exhausted and like he's had enough it the best way to go sorry.
