    what abt considering isolating the fish when feeding? or isolate it completely so that it is easier to feed?

    no eyes would be one good way to tell
    don't worry about them
    they can find food just well

    hi there ninjafly

    this cory that i have was given to me . and its abt 1" slim guy and is totally black (including the under belly). the owner has told me that this is a 'handicap' cory but i find very pretty. hes unwilling to sell it so he gave it to me instead and i assured him that i will take care of it.

    there are no eyes at all and the depressions where the sockets should be are not very visible too.

    unique fish to me, and im hoping that it will still continue to grow bigger and fatter
