Hi. I’ve had a tropical 40 litre tank set up and running for nearly 2 years. I have two corys one bronze one albino. I did have a third bronze Cory but lost him a few months ago due to a fungus.
(I’m currently treating my tank with melafix to treat a very mild fin rot for one of my cardinal tetras and its working great. But the last few days I’ve noticed my bronze Cory will do an odd flick on the sand substrate. This morning she did it again but a couple in quick succession and did a mad swim up to the surface and dart back down (I know the surface break is normal behaviour for corys). But what is the flicking? There are no signs of fin rot, fungus, white spot etc - could this just be a way corys sometimes “play†??? The other one isn’t doing it though? They’re both females.
My ammonia is 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate around 50
