Dizzy Cory Cat

[BryceMan]

For the last couple weeks my cory cat has been swimming fine but every once and a while, he stops and just rolls over. The water parameters are fine and he is eating and swimming, he just rolls over in a corner and stays like that for a couple hours.

I first thought it might be a swim bladder infection because he seemed to be feeling fine but it's like on and off.

Any Thoughts out there?

Epilepsy or some type of seizure??

I have never heard of an epileptic fish...

Maybe he just wants to play dead. That would freak me out too but I would guess that he is comfortable too.

Maybe there is no such thing. But it may be a seizure. Anything with a nervouse system can have a seizure.

Either way it appears to me that your fish either has a psychological problem and enjoys it, or a genetic brain/nervouse system problem.

I have never heard of any disease or parasite or tank condition that would cause something like this.

Send him to a fishy shrink!!:huh:
