Remember that horrible finrot and fungus. All gone, including the fin. The cory is now called Nemo.
Sorry about the grubby glass but the only place he wanted to pose was where the one grubby bit was on the glass.

Remember Nemo? He is in an all cory tank now and has all healed up. The gravel looks huge in the photo but it's only 1/4 ". Nemo never was real big.

Yes, the barbels are still missing. I don't know if they will ever grow back, but there are no signs of any growth there as yet.

Sometimes they grow back, but it's very difficult to say. If they are badly worn out, i don't think that they'll grow back. For sure they need them for breeding.

Did the medication kill your biofilter?

No, the Waterlife Myxazin and Protozin, and Pimafix and Melefix didn't kill the bio balance although I did get some odd reading in my water tests. I think the water was fine, just the medication distorting the kit.

maybe you should consider getting some or smoother gravel or some sand for your cory tank. I did for my cories when their barabels were wearing off.
