it is always aussie in the losing end, despite the huge size, they are really tame, my red rip of couple of scales and fin damage blood streak were seen, however i had already separate them, believe me aussie lung is a very speedy recovery fish, within a week plus all heal up

pics coming soon!!!!:headbang2

Geez. That's amazing. I've got to make some filters like that. Nice AUL, too.

About those cloudy eyes...does your water have hardness? My Oscar's eyes got cloudy when I first got him. I then figured out that my pH crashes every week and added crushed coral to the filter box. Within a day his eyes cleared and have never clouded since. But each species will have its own preferred water conditions, so what worked for an Oscar might not work for the Lung. Good luck!
