RE: [GSAS-Member] Eye problem with angel

There is a parasite goes into the eyes. Not sure if that's what my fish or
your fish have, but I've read about in "Fish Health". Eye cloud is also
caused by high nitrates too.

You say you used parasite meds, do you think this is
caused by a parasite? Do you think it is contagous? I
haven't added any new fish to that tank for many many
months. I'll see what I can find on "eye cloud"
disease in cichlids.  

thank you
