ok so my sweetlips has an eye with a giant bubble over it and its cloudy.
wtf is it
and how do i get rid of it!
i clean my water
the salt level is PERFECT
ughhh, and he's got what looks like ich, but previously it was like a white slime, and i added some stuff the guy at the LFS gave me, so it could be that clearing up.

please help

well...from how u are explaining your tank it is hard to tell...you clean your water? ( wtf mate) plus salt level is important but ph and many others are the things that should come to ur mind first.

do you have any other fish with it, if you do put it in a seperate tank...how big is ur tank?
 
lol i just meant i clean my water on the regular, and i tested my water everything is fine, i dont have the exact numbers bc my uncle owns the tester kit and i wrote them down and they're at his house.


but i read lowering the filter to releasing/cycling less water could be beneficial for the fish's eye
 
Please explain how you "clean" your water. When posting about a sick animal it is useless without exact water parameters. Get your own test kit.
 
I had the same thing happen 3 months ago. All I did was water changes, 25 % 3 times a weak for 2 weaks, and then my fish went back to normal.
 
OK my answers are never short, so brace yourself. I am walking out the door right now, but in a few hours, when I am home, after I deal with my animals, I will fill you in ok. Hang tight ok. I'll be back.
