Sailfin problems

[backdraft79]

The other day I noticed ich on my sailfin tang. I have been feeding heavy with garlic and that has gone away for the most part. Now one of his eyes are kinda cloudy. What up this time?

Awhile back I had a clown with a cloudy eye. Cleared up in a couple of days. I think maybe an irritation caused this to happen.

Not sure maybe secondary infection?

As for the ich, get the water right and stable. Hopefully the inmates get along. If there are disputes, occasional ich can be an issue. Stress can certainly spur such events. Don't worry too much. Get the water right and all will be fine. For the eye, it is possible that "if" there is territory disputes, fish tend to chase one another about at high speeds. I have seen issues where fish "wing" a piece of coral in the chase. After a few days of healing, all will be better. Unfortunately, I have two large Domino Damsels that spawn every couple weeks. They are quite playful and find paths through the branching reef structure that only they can fit. A few times over the last year, one of them has wounds from the farari like moves they pull.

Have fun!

Here is to hoping for the best!
