Is My Cory Sick Or Dieing

[atmmachine816]

my cory is always flipping over on his back when he swims arond and is not in a cave to support his back he is old not sure how old but old is this just his way of slowly dieing or is he sick or something

If he is laying to one side yes he's sick, corys are very prone to bacterial infections and it sounds like he has one, what do his barbels look like.

 

[Undawada]

it sounds to me like he either has gas in his abdomen or a swim bladder problem, causing him to be unable to control his buoyancy.

Unfortunately I don't know much about treating this

Hopefully someone else might have some reccomendations.

Set up a little bowl or something with clean water, put him in it and feed him and keep it warm. There's really nothing else you can do. I've always done that with my cories and it worked out well.
