Can't really tell with the pic, but corys are prone to bacterial infections.
Does it look like fluff going along the back of the fish coming down the sides.
 
Yes, it does. Sadly, the cory died this morning.

If you are trying to see the picture, look at where the dorsal fin is then just look down the back, there you will see the fuzz coating the cory, going along the sides as well.

Thank you.
 
Sorry my eyes are getting old.
R.I.P. bless him.
A few daily water changes and keep a eye on the fish.
Good luck.
