Sailfin Tang eyes cloudy

[conejo74]

Hi all... any advice why the eyes of my sailfin tang would start becoming cloudy after moving my tank? Anything I could do to remedy the situation. She was in a 10gal holding tank while moving and rearranging the main tank... All other fish are doing well after the move. Thanks in advance.

AFAIK cloudy eyes can sometimes be a sign of stress and substandard water quality (and it's easily possible to experience an ammonia spike after an overhaul). I'd test the water, see if there's maybe some NH3 or NO2 there that's stressing the fish. If the water tests fine post all the levels, tank specs and inhabitants along with a picture of the affected fish if you can get one and hopefully someone will have an answer

Ich in the eyes can also make them cloudy. Check if the fish as any ich after the stress.

I like letting nature run its course.. I let my fish build an immunity naturally, never lost a fish to any diseases, even the ones I rehabilitate.

If you have some levels, you can dump some Prime in as a detox.

Otherwise I'd just feed the fish good food, maybe soak algae in Zoe or Selcon ... and let her get over it. Good luck
