Hi
I put a note on here a couple of weeks ago about my albino cory showing signs of redness starting from mid belly to tail. All fins good, feeding well and swimming normally. Unfortunately he was with me before starting cycle which is now in the nitrate stage. I have tried to be very vigilant in making sure ammonia and nitrite low by 50% water changes every day. I know that Cory's don't like Nitrate and am keeping an eye on that too. His colouring has not really changed, but now I have noticed that some of what looks like his skin has started to come off where the red bits are. Could this be anything to do with high ph for a cory?
Any advice greatly received.
