    My corys usually spend most of their time exploring the bottom and only swim upwards when they need to "breathe" from the surface.

    How long have they been in there?

    Mine don't do that but I believe its because I have a sufficent amount of natural cover for them to explore and forage.

    I have 6 peppered corydoras and the stay mostly at the bottom. Sometimes they will make a lap or two up and down or across the top of the water but not exclusively.
