Passer Juvenile with cloudy eye in quarantine

[tannersmith2000]

Hello

I bought a passer angel (4") last Tuesday and he has been doing wonderful except I started to notice two days ago that his right eye slowly began turning cloudy and protruding a little more than the other eye.

His left eye is in great shape. He is eating very well (nori). I have began soaking my nori with fresh garlic and he gobbles it up like a champ. I hope that will boost his immune system.

I just performed a 50% water change in his 10 gallon QT.

I heard using about a teaspoon of epsom salt would help as well.

Do any of you all have any suggestions with how to clear his eye up?

Thanks

Three things cause cloudy eyes. Bacterial infection;Furan-2 is a good course of treatment. Flukes; a fresh water bath will confirm. Water quality is another cause. Being the eye is slightly enlarged antibiotics would be the first course of action.
