just bought a coral beauty and it has not been a day and one of his eyes looks like it is fogged. Any clues whats happening? Maybe Ich(sp)?


Also my maroon clown's face started to shed its skin some what like we peel when sun burned.

I would put that clown in a hospital tank ASAP

thanks for the info.

No problem. Hopefully the fish can be saved and didnt affect anything else. Let me know how it turns out.

Usually if only one eye is affected (either foggy or popeye), the cause is a physical injury. Could have be scraped while netting or while settling down into the new surroundings. Just keep a watch on the coral beauty and find out what's going on with the clown.

I am going to take the clown back to the lfs tomorrow.

with the coral beauty, will this eye issue heal itself? Its seems to have gotten worse as where it was fogged before now its fogged and popping out a bit.

A little reading here for you. http://www.wetwebmedia.com/popeyefaqs.htm

You can try an epsom salt dip but I personally would just keep up the water quality and feedings. As long as the fish is eating well, let it heal on it's own.

When my coral beauty had this issue, it was dead in a week. I tried everything to no avail.
