Can you elaborate on what the problem is?

And what is the eye comment in reference to?

skeety · 10-02-2005, 07:59 PM

disregard...read it wrong, I guess.

You mean his mouth? his mouth is wide open? how is the rest of him? how long has it been wide open?

Do you have a pic?

do you see cloudyness in the eye of hte fish?
it might be pop eye. or he has air in the linig of the eye. if it is air in the eye as long as you find the source of the air ( usally skimmer related) then he shoudl be fine in a few days, if it is pop eye. then he needs to go in ot a QT tank adn be treated

it is really big and swollen no cloudiness other eye is fine fish is moving around fine
injury maybe? dont really know how to tell if it's pop eye

it will have a "haze" to it.. usally it is a bacteria thing, you will have to treat this.. it is possible be damages it, can you see any damage to that area at all? scraps or abrasions?

So is it the eye or mouth?

DOH! (yet once again).

Thought you were talking about a Sabae Anemone.

you're talking about a clown.

I'm gonna go bang my head on a wall for a couple minutes....

Then your eye is going to be swollen.
