I hardly ever see the cories in my tank. They usually come out when I feed them when I turn off the lights. Are your cories active during the day?

My corys used to be extremely active, now they are lazy and hide. I just let them do their own thing, they seem happy.

do you have plants? mine do not like the bright lights and hide amongst the plants most of the time.

I agree. Corys arent known for enjoying bright lights. Mine will hide out under plants all day, but once i turn off the main lights, and turn the lunar lights on, they all come out and start looking for food.

Mine like to hang out under the driftwood and in the shade of the plant leaves. Yours are fine, I'm sure. :thm:

They are probably fine, mine are mostly active in the evening and in the morning. During the day they usually hide out at the back of the tank, once it starts getting dark they are all over the place.

some of mine are pretty shy. my emeralds, and the one schwartzi and the one trilineatus i have are very shy. the peppered cories i have are pretty rambunctious, but they are still young. they have been getting more shy as time goes on
