Hi. I just adopted a catfish and seems like it has "cloud eye" or some sort of issue with its eyes.
Can someone confirm what type of issue is this?
Is it something that will go on its own with clean water or is it bacterial infection which needs to be treated?
Is it contagious?
Attached pics.

Also, what species of catfish is this?
