Well Little Dude Finally Developed Droop Eye

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Do you also have DE , Delgado?? ROFL
 
Never the less, it will still be treated as king of the tank. :headbang2
 
thats too bad he finally got it. like you said though...we are expecting it. my little guy is approaching the 9-10 inch mark and i am watching for it. im sure he will get it eventually too.
 
Here it goes, again, you guys all starting to notice the pattern? I've been closely watching everyone's Silver's that got d.e. and they ALL have resulted from a violent headbanging incident/accident/Aro spazz out/crash head into top or mine did it on a rock. I think in the wild they are free to jump, in captivity they get hurt, thus d.e. NO! I don't have the energy to start a 10 page d.e. debate like the dog has been whipped dead now, just an observation in what everyone is seemingly saying.

My first one even healed when I removed all fish that made him look down and added colored bobbers and only fed floating food, his d.e. got noticeably better until he smacked his heach again, then I said screw it and threw in the towel!
 
After studying this subject until my eyes crossed, I totally agree that the most likely cause of DE is injury to the head or eye from jumping and hitting tops, etc. It makes the most sense of any of the theories.
 
:iagree:

I am impressed! We all (some who spoke out) are starting to agree on something for once on here. I believe it because I saw it happen before my eyes.
