Upsidedown Cory Cat

[1 LARA]

The past few weeks this cory, alive and well, seems to like to sleep in this position.
It is normal in motion like swimming and eating but, wn not in motion this is how it sets down.
Any diagnosis?

One of mine has been doing that too,I just assumed it was genetic.

What are your water parameters, ammonia, nitrites, nitrates? How big of a tank? What fish are in there?

How long has it been swimming like that?

I had a Cory like that that would swim upside down. It lasted for about a week. It's sort of this creative phase they go through I guess.

^bro, its SLEEPING upside down or resting

i think its normal, if loaches can do it, why not corys?

well, my neon bleu gourami sleeps like that or swims upside down often
