Corydora With Shiny Gills.

[Rox]

Hi everyone, I've had this cory for about a year now and today he's developed a sort of sparkle in his gill area. It looks almost like a dab of silver glitter. I have Googled it and everyone seems to say it's normal, but I wanted to see if anyone here had their own input. Thanks

Yes, it's perfectly normal.

Hi Rox,

Does it look like this? If so, it's perfectly fine.



This fish is a mature female, wild caught, C. aeneus.

I think it's called iridescence and I think most cory's have it.....mine do anyway!!!
