Help me please! Or help my frontosa please! I just got him over the weekend and he was fine. Well today I came home from work to find his right eye infected or something. He is about half an inch, he hides behind a water heater everytime I see him. I don't know if that is the case or not but please, any advice would be much appreciated. Here is the best pic I can get of it.

Nobody has any advice for me?? His eye is getting worse. It looks like some kind of fungus. I'm afraid it is too late for that eye. I only have Sundays off so I am taking him to the lfs tomorrow to get hospitalized. I hope they can help me. I'm totally bummed out right now.

what your fish has is "popeye eye" its caused by bacterial infections, parasite infestations, poor water quality, and internal metabolic system disorders.
throw some "maracyn plus" in to treat your front and it should turn out fine in time!
 
I'm sorry to inform you guys but he didn't make it through the night...thanks for the replies.:(
