Yesterday I purchased 5 panda corys. I floated the unopened bag in the darkened tank before letting the fish swim free. One of them was upside down in the bag (I thought he was dead), however he swam down to the bottom of the tank with his chums & explored the tank with them. During the evening we noticed he seemed to have trouble keeping upright but after a short while seemed ok. This morning I thought he was dead again as he was belly up at the top of the tank. I went to get him out & off he went & was feeding with the others. A short while ago I noticed him motionless again but as I opened the lid to the tank off he went, he's not right though. The current from the filter was too strong for him to swim against & he flew across the tank. He has just about managed to get right way up again now. Any ideas please? I dont like to think hes suffering at all.
