I got a yellow coris wrasse 3 days ago and today was the first day it came out of hiding in the sand. I noticed that one of its eyes is cloudy or foggy. The FAQ in this section has a broken link to this. Any recommendations for treatment I doubt I will be able to get him out of my tank.
 
Is the whole eye cloudy or just part of it? Do some research into flukes and bacterial infections, it is probably one of the two. If it is bacterial you can't do much without moving the fish to a hospital tank besides feed well and keep water quality high. If you suspect flukes you can try treating with praziquantel in your DT, many people have had good luck with this, but it can sometimes cause problems for some desirable invertebrates along with the flukes.
