gardenman Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Make cory cats are thinner than females, they don't need room for eggs, so it's possible he's your lone male. If he's otherwise healthy and fine, I wouldn't worry about it too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flumpweesel Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Can't believe no one has said 🌮 But I agree with the others females grow fast and much bigger than the males. If it seems happy then you're doing fine by it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colu Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Feed some frozen blood worms a couple of times a week there higher in protein that will help build him up 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atitagain Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 When I feed frozen foods I always thaw in a cup and feed from a turkey baster. You could do this and target feed him first. But like others are saying as long as he seems healthy I wouldn’t worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do that and he seems to eat but I don’t know where it goes 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
