Today I was cleaning out leaves on the gravel of my tank and my 6" Bala Shark got a bit skittish, then he decided to jump, well he land on the cover, but there was flakes and a bit of sand on the cover.

Some was on his eye, so I just quickly dipped my thumb in the tank and wiped it clean. All was fine, well 4 hours later I've seen him again after being out and now its very pale, very white and looking bad.

I've seen this before on a 4Ft Jardini and I've heard of it before, just never experianced it.

Any help?
I dont have any salt in my tank as my loaches, plecs, plants and other fish dislike it. Setting up a hospital tank is not an option as I have NO space for another tank whilst we are renovating the house.
 
well perhaps maybe you have a pale or bucket or your tub to put him to,otherwise just keep your water clean.
