the pix came from a book... the aro got a a drop eyes... so the guy cut the fat off... one of the theory on drop eye is the fat deposit in the eye socket....

ahhh thank u

 

[softturtle]

did it fix the problem?

 

[piranha45]

yes... but i believe it was said that if the arow continued to eat a poor diet, the problem would happen again

Once an Aro gets drop eye is there any other cure for them other than having to cut away the fatty deposits ?

 

[piranha45]

personally, I don't know.

i think the ping pong ball method works

one of my friends has an indoor pond
i think that since it is alway looking for food and the place it can look is up
it never devolped drop eye.....
it has been in there for 3 yrs
and it's like 30 plus inchs

Is it true that black aros don't get drop eye?
