I have 2 peppered cory and I have noticed on my daily check that for a few days one of my corys have gone slightly plumper around the middle and has gone a lighter colour. Ive checked for all signs of infection/illness but haven't noticed anything wrong, I have done water tests and the tank and water is in perfect condition, everything is perfect. The corys poop is fine all looks healthy and the cory is still moving fine as usual and eating ok.

Although the cory looks healthy apart from the slight colour change and abit of plumpness im still a little concerned incase there is something I have missed.

Does anyone have any idea?

Thanks

Corys change colour, Mines were see through when I bought them and have now gone much darker/black :p
 
how old are they? maybe the plumper one is a chick?

:) Chokko has a point there about the chicks. Females are very plump when carrying eggs. There bottom can become curved like a rainbow, not flat like the males. But going pale is no good unless you mean just slightly paler which can happen. Do you have pictures maybe?
 
Yes that could be the case and yes the colour change is only slightly paler and I will try and get some pics on here for you today if they will allow it lol, thankyou!
