My peppered cory ( Think i have solved it)

Post by tashyluv »

I purchased 4 peppered cory about two months ago. They were advertised as juliis but I done a search and found out I had purchased peppereds.
Anyway one cory seems quite a dark compared to the others, I know this can be quite normal, but the thing I am worried about is i have noticed recently that he has a red tinge on his tail and his fins.
I have done a search on the net and cant find anything.
He does sit on his own sometimes, he seems active, I just wanna know if anyone has come accross this before

Thanks

EDIT I done some more searching on the net, and I think its fin rot. one symptom is that the blood vessels get blocked which displays the red like veins on the tail and fins. plus his tail looks kinda tatty anyway. Im gonna get some med tommorrow

If anyone can confirm this that would be great
