upside down cory cat??
I have 2 upside down cats and 2 cory cats.
I have 2 pots/caves in my tank that each upside down cat has claimed for their own. One of them (Joe) will not let the other in it's cave, but the 2 cory cats are more than welcome in there. A few weeks ago as I walked past my fish tank I noticed that my albino cat was upside down in Joe's cave. I knew he was dead, but I was on my way out and I knew I would be back in about 30 minutes so I decided to get him out when I got back (I know, I'm a horrible person!). When I got back he was swimming around like nothing was wrong. I decided that maybe I had mistaken what I saw and he was not really upside down. I few days later I saw it again except this time I really looked to make sure that he was truly upside down. The third time I was able to get a few pics (they are blurry and Joe is in the way, but it was all I could get with my ancient camera before he moved). Tonight I was able to see him actually flip upside down. He started by leaning onto one side and coming back upright. He did that a few times and then finally flipped all the way onto his back and just rested there next to Joe. I only see him do it inside the cave with Joe; never outside the cave, in the other cave, or with Shimp (the other upside down cat). Has anyone ever seen a cory cat do this? I just found it so interesting, but maybe it is a common thing.
