Hey guys!
When i bought these Bronze cories(6 cories) they all looked fine.But the last days i noticed the bigger one has some whitish color on the skin and it has got bigger the last few days.
Here is a pic of the cory and it shows the start of the problem...it's twice as big now.The water parameters are fine and the temp is at 27C.
Any hints?




I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.

Is it possible the problem was caused by some thing in the tank sharp object rock etc.

I would try Pimafix and see how that goes, it could be a fungus infection from another problem.

Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info

It definitly looks like fungus to me. id try what kieth said. pimafix should really help if its fungus.

The true test of character is not how much we know how to do, but how we behave when we dont know what to do.

Hey guys!
Just wanted to say that he is much better today
I didn't use any meds at all,just some waterchanges since i wanted to try that out first to see how it goes.Well it looks like it's working.
