I have 6 Julii Corydoras. Before I rehomed my zebra loaches, one of them was badly bullied. He lost his barbels (Water conditions were fine - Ammonia, nitrite 0 and nitrate 5-10) even though he is on a sand substate
Over the past couple of weeks, he seems better and less lethargic. I don't know whether he has been eating or not, but without barbels is he able to eat? What are his chances of survival without them?
He has been like this for about a month
None of my cories seem to have long barbels anymore, and while none of them are as short as his, they all seem shorter. As I say, they have a sand substrate and no gravel. Decor include plants, bogwood and a 3D Background.
Do cories barbels get shorter as they get older? To me it makes no sense. 1 other one has short barbels, the others are not as bad. Water paramaters are all normal.
Thanks
