What's Wrong with my Clown?!

[brannock_16]

Hello Everyone,

This morning I turned on the lights to my tank and saw my male clownfishs' left eye is cloudy and enlarged. This happened sometime yesterday (I was not home while lights were on) but on Friday he was fine. He is tending to the eggs like normal, he is eating well, and shows no ill effects.

What should I do? Should I leave him in the tank and see if he can fight it off or should I remove him to a QT and treat him? If I remove him, what should I treat with?

Thanks in advance guys.

Robert

I would first try Epsom salt, 1 tablespoon per 5 gals. You can safely do this right in the DT and the Epsom salt will help ease the swelling if this is due to eye injury. It's worth a shot before you have to QT and medicate.
