New friends and question about strange cory

[Sgooosh]

Hello i got a new guppy

photo is poop but also one of mycories keeps on goingto the surface andis sometimes upsidedown... what is happening?

Probably swim bladder disorder. QT him and don’t feed for a couple of days. See if it improves. If so, give him a blanched, peeled pea . To get him pooping before starting him back in food.

I don't understand the question. There's no Corydoras in the picture???

Corydoras regularly take air from the surface. They can take in oxygen from the air they breathe and the air can help their buoyancy in the water. Some fish will also learn to take food from the surface.

hes not uncontrollably doing it its like hes trying to eat something. he is now looking in the mid water column on top of the amazon sword and other stuff. i think its just he is looking for some floating food or the current is blowing him?

Have you tested the water for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate?

yeah last time i checked(a few dyas ago) amm and nitri were 0. its just that one fish though all others are looking for food on bottom but he is looking for food more up thw water column

the fish sounds fine and is probably just exploring the tank or looking for food

yea, no signs of bad stuff, he is probably just wondering why there are 5 sides of mirrors in the tank
