Re: [GSAS-Member] Eye problem with angel
I'd have a rock or something she can hide behind to reduce her stress,
and a teaspoon of salt per gallon of water.

Thank you everyone.
The tank is at work, so tomorrow I'll bring in a
smaller tank for her to rest and heal up in. No
substrate, just a filter, heater and the fish. I'll
try the methlynent blue too, though handling her makes
me nervous.

I hope Ken's wife is okay and the appointment goes
well. As for Victorea's angel
I wouldn't suspect a parasite. It is probably
bacterial. The best thing would be
to move her to a different, REALLY clean, tank where
she could rest up. You
should add some salt because that often helps. You
could also try an antibiotic
if you like. I like to squirt some Methylene Blue
(or Acriflavin) right on the
affected eyes when I move the fish because that
seems to help.
It could be that there is something else wrong with
the fish, internally, and
that is why she has become susceptible to these eye
infections. There could also
be problems with injury from other fish or from
objects in the tank.
