bicolor Angel

[brayden]

I have a bicolor Angel that has a film over his eyes. He can't see very well and his blue seems to be whitening a bit. I recently had a problem with ich, but it has been clearing up. The Angel is having trouble finding the food due to his vision. Can you tell me what this is and how to treat it?

its more then likely a scratch for shipping that has taken a secondary infection. in established tanks it could be a sign of water quality. i would treat it with a round of pimafix/melafix in a well aerated qt tank

A picture would help. It is unlikely a simple injury since it involves BOTH eyes. More likely it is a systemic problem - could be that the Cryptocaryon has not been controlled yet in this one fish, or it could be Neobenedenia flukes...

I'm not sure about the scratch only because I have had him for quite a while and this is just now coming up.
JHemdal: What are these problems that you are talking about and how do you treat or cure them?
