Just got a paroon shark yesterday. He is about 4 inches. Only issue is when I got him home he had cloudy eyes and tattered fins. What is something I could do to fix this issue. I'm planning to do a 50% water change and see if that helps anything

Hopefully the eyes haven't been cloudy for too long before you bought the fish as they should soon clear up in the good clean water in your tank,the fins should heal up as well.

I think it happened in transit to my house. Just did a 50% wc hope that helps

add salt and bump temps to 80 ! should clear up..

if it persists or some type of fungus or rot develops i would half dose triple sulfa.

Little weary with meds or salts of any kind since it's a scaleless fish. I saw him this morning it looks like it's getting a little better.

If you do end up needing a medication for your scaleless mate, I highly recommend melafix. My pangasius / ID sharks have banged themselves up pretty good before I moved them into the bigger tank and this medication has kept them healthy and healing fast.
