Lung fish Diet

[Shishir Shetye]

All of mine only poop once or twice a week.

Thank friends...

Its nearly 2 week WAL s is @ my home. He was de homed by my frnd, bcz he in 1 night killed his 3 big discus( He was told that its catfish fish so he had purchased it).

Earlier WAL s was shy.. And used to stay in shelter.. But he s now coming out and eating regularly. During eating i noticed that he has cloudy eyes.

I just saw it last friday.. From that day i m cleaning 50% or little more water every day & also using Rid all red, but no improvement.

Any advice... I donot know how many days he was kept in small tank before my frnd gave him to me.. as i said my frnd was angry on him. Water was also too bad when i picked him up.

Any suggestions.. For recovery from cloudy eye.

Just clean his water like you are and make sure you have sufficient filtration. They are hard to kill.

Didn't understand.. "They are hard to kill". Is that parasite on eye of WAL's or type of Fungus ?


Are any ill effects of such cloudy eyes on lungfish health..? Is it Incurable.
He is damn active and messy eater right now.. doesnt seems any bad effect till now.

Hard to kill. They are easy to keep alive and not very sensitive to water quality

They do not look too cloudy. They are usually part grey, or did they cloud after you got it?

Yes.. Its nearly 5 days i have seen this. I have been changing water 50% daily, bcz i thought it is cloudy eye. But no improvement.

When i adpoted him.. He s eye was clear... I think so. But for sure this is happen to him in last few days only.

I showed this pics to LFS... He to have a huge lungfish.

He said its usually due to low temp and advise me to use heater and set it to 28 c with API Melafix.

Its just a day.. I m doing as he said. And the cloudy shape in fish eyes is now disappearing.
Hope lung fish eyes gets clear within this week.

Thank you frnd.. You advised a lot. Thanks very much.
