HELP!!!!

A week ago I noticed my 12" shubunkin had what appeared to be a fleshy lump right on the top of it's eye, now it looks almost like the inside of the eye is squeezing out the top. I have been treating with melafix and primafix for two days.

Adding that now it looks like a big red ulcer around the eye instead of a bubble.

sounds like your treating okay..sounds like an injury to me ..that may have become infected with bacteria or fungus... hope your shebunken does okay..you must have had it quite a while to get it to 12 inches.. mine are 9 years old and about that from head to tail...

ok thanks yeah they are doing much better, still don't know what they could have caught it on!

I got it at about 3" 3 years ago and it's grown really quickly.
