I'm new to having cories. I was wondering what the white circle is on the belly. Do all cories have it? Does somebody have an anatomy diagram of the panda cory?
 
I[m not familiar with a white circle on their bellies. Can you post a pic of it?
 
I don't have a pic but my bronze is like that. He is a darker colour all around and then has a bright white bump on the middle where his belly is. It doesn't really look like it is any problem and he still acts normal. Maybe he is just overfed?
 
Female cories are noticeably rounder in the abdomen than males. So round that the females actually don't sit flat on the substrate like the males. Google some male/female cory pics to see the differences in the abdomens and see if that's the round bump that you're seeing.
 
Let us know what you think after your googling.:)
