if its not on the outer lenses then its not cloud eye and unfortunately the fish probaly is blind you will nedd to treat with a strong antibacterial med such as
gentamycin or amoxicillian

if the eye becomes cloudy from the inside out it may be a parasite

Fish isn't blind on any of his eyes, eats just as well as the other guys but if it's a parasite or bacteria, I should move him to a hospital tank right?

pH is fine (8.0) and I bought it like that. Water is fine and I'll be doing water changes every 3 days.
 
Don mean to derail, but one of my ITs has in each eye, a solid White ball, say 1-2 mm diameter. The outer Lens is normal. The White ball is behind it sort of on te pupil. My friend said it might be cataract. Idont know though.

I too got it for discount. It doesn't swim round like it's blind, and is pretty stable, and eats pellets. But I'm sure long term, it will go completely blind.

Personally, I would stick with mela + pima mixed. Then 25% wc after 4 days, the 25% wc x 2 per week. Yours sound like it could be a bit worse than cloudy eye, if it's behind the lens.
Sorry I can't advise on anti bact meds as I have never had to use it on my tigers.
 
Ade if that pupil become completely white hes going to be blind. Cataract is a fungal infection where the pupil is destroyed from the inside out and looks caved in ....It that happens it will go blind. Post a pic of that guy Ade. Fungal infection of the eyes from the inside out, parasite in the eye, and bacterial infection are the only thing that could destroy the eye like that.
 
Thanks for the info funwow.. I'll see if I can get pic, or find the old thread.

I think the whiteball is on the outside of pupil but behind the lens.
