My Arro eyes

[rallysman]

It is only one eye.Is the other one going to do it to.I feed him pellets,Krill,crickets and night crawlers.Is this ok.

A LFS arpound here had one that was 24" and only had it in one eye. (it jumped to its doom)

What about krill, will it make him fat or should I feed him more pellets.

sorry dude, drop eye is a usual aro problem. they say it can be fixed but never actually saw a dragon whose drop-eye was ever reversed

 

[DeLgAdO]

Yep he has drop eye. There isn't anything you can do to fix it, most Silver aros will get it. You can try to prevent it by feeding well, low fat. Some try to float pingpong balls or blinking lights above the tank. I personally believe that it is genetic.

not even that will prevent it

 

[WyldFya]

Thats what some people try, and there are members on the forum that swear by floaters and blinking lights. But as I said I still believe it is genetic inbreeding.

 

[dimfer]

some people try to fix it by covering the front of the tank..not sure how effective it is

a drastic move , u might have to slice the drop eye to remove the fatty tissue
