Snowman Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 I've just picked up a black angel fish, got it home & have just noticed what looks like a white spot on one eye, any ideas what it might be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo1 Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Might be blind in that eye. Perhaps he got attacked by another fish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 I copied and pasted the url to see the pic. Looks very round and bang in the centre doesn't it? Makes me discount injury. How does he swim? Same as others? Keeps veering to one side or anything? Seem to have difficulty seeing food on that side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 I've found furan II works well on cloudy eyes. Put him in a sick tank and treat him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted February 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 It seems to swim fine , is giving my silver angel a hard time and only went in last night , it does seem to be blind on the right side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted February 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Would cloudy eye affect only 1 eye ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted February 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 WooHoo success my pic worked LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 I thought cloudy eye covered the whole eye. Does it start with a small dot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 When one of my severums had it, yeah, it started out as a small white dot on both eyes and spread to cover the whole eye, as I was treating it, it shrunk to a small white dot inthe center of the eye. Then unfortunately I lost her because I was a bit careless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 I have only seen pics in books where the whole eye was cloudy. Sounds like your suggestion for treatment is worth a try then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted February 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Only prob is i dont have a sick tank , looks like i gotta try to get one tommorrow, i can run air into it but will be a prob with no filter wont it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Not if you do regular partial water changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted February 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Cool :lol: How does 10% daily sound, considering i dont want to dilute the Furan to much, im lucky i've got some left over 4 caps i think so should be enough if i can find a small tank(40L)approx. Thanks Caryl,Ira,Phillz&Jo1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted March 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 I've just finished the Furan2 treatment & no change , she's back in the community tank and gets around ok (doesn't bump into things) eats fine and is getting on with the others so shes ok , shame about being blind in one eye but lifes like that LOL Cheers peoples for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
