Air bubbles under lens of eye??

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Same thing with a trimac, air bubble under the lense. This guy has had it since he had a case of popeye that became infected. Sometimes when he gets into fights the bubble will seperate into two bubbles.

He is blind in this eye so I have considered trying to pierce the lense to let the air out, but have yet to try it.

That's exactly what my aro's eye looks like, but a little worse. She has a bunch of bubbles in her eye. Do you think she may have lost vision in it?

Don't know, like I said this guys eye was infected(white fungus coming out from behind the eye) and the cornea now has a cataract in it. You should be able to tell whether or not your aro can see out of it.

Within the last few hours blood has started to accumulate in the fish's eye and there are even more bubble visible. i have tried getting a good pic, but they arent showing any details. I have no idea what is going on!?
 
I have never seen anything like it. Think you'll have to follow the course and see what gives.

We are all following...

Sorry, I don't know what you could even do for this.
 
Thanks everyone. The fish is still feeding and acting normal, but the right eye looks terrible. I'm just going to continue with waterchanges and adding salt. Like Miguel said...i'll just have to let it run it's course and see what the future brings. I raised this aro from less than 2", so it really stinks to see this happening! Thanks for all the support.
