Hello everyone……
My Corydoras are all thriving and doing great. Expect one. He is swimming to the surface every 1 minute (literally about every 30 seconds). I have a air pump and two filters so there’s a lot of water movement ect.
I am very new to fish keeping as I took these fish from my sister because she was keeping them in a 1 gal fishbowl with no filter or heater….so I’m trying to learn everything as fast as I can. I’ve had them a few months and have learnt alot, I understand the nitrate cycle ect.
I understand it’s normal for Corydoras to swim to the top for air occasionally but this is just concerning.
I have a 15 gallon tank and 5 cories in there. I don’t have a test kit yet so I couldn’t tell you my ammonia, nitrates ect. I am saving to get one. I also have a heater so it couldn’t be temperature.
I just really want to help this poor cory I am so concerned for him. Nobody else is acting weird so I am very scared.
Could this be a sign of illness? I will take any advice I can get.
