Last night her right eye pop out and I put her in the hosiptal tank.
I drop some aquarium salt and turn the heater up
Can someone tell me what's going on? and what can I do now?

Thanks,

Full recovery in 3 days? Keep the meds up for as long as recommended on the bottle.

Once recovered, the next thing to figure out is what caused it. What are the nitrates of the regular tank? Poor water quality is the # one cause of pop-eye. How often do you clean that tank? How often and how much water do you change?

I have no idea what caused it, and this is the only one out of 9 blood parrot with pop eye disease. My tank, I think is good, with bare bottom. I am using xp3 for full load of ceramic rings and also AC110 only sponge and filter floss, I clean the filter floss every 3 days. WC every Sunday.
I put it in the hospital tank and medicate it, rinse temperate up to 31c.
I put it back into the show tank and no problem now
Thanks anyway
