SemperFish--I originally had some aeration in there, but I took it out with everything else when I cleaned the tank. Now that you've reminded me I'm gonna put it back in. It should help a little too by stirring up the water for the filter since the filter on there is just too small
Midas pop-eye (pic) treatment help please!!

I went and picked those up. Just did my last ditch effort to save him. 25% water change, added the air stone for some circulation, added the treatment and some more salt for the stress. He is on his own for the next 48 hours.
Bob965--the answer to your question is pretty simple. I am using ich treatment because he has ich. There are spider-web-like strings growing from his fins and he has white spots on his body. The pop-eye is a sympton of ich and other diseases/fungus. I love how so many other people just attack other posters and make subtle insults on these threads. I am not 'so quick to dump a bottle of anything in his tank'. This fish is 8 years old and it's the first time I've ever had a fish get sick like this. So, I researched what the sickness is from and went and got something to help treat it.
You should check this out. It's pretty informative.
