My fishes eye is really swelled, what should I do
I have a male beta, and just right now I noticed that his left eye had swelled very much, and there was a sort of bubble swelling around it as well. What should I do? Should I take it to the vet, or give it some special sort of medicine?
Answers:swollen
and i think you should leave it to the vet
put some eye drops in it.
FLUSH
he has a common fungus called clout , most local pet stores will have a medication that will treat , also stress coat will help it has aloe vera in it
Sounds like popeye to me. Here is a link http://www.fishjunkies.com/diseases/pope.
Popeye
Description: Popeye is some type of infection or fluid buildup that causes the eyes of a fish to bulge out of their sockets. It can be caused by bacteria and infections may range from minor to fatal. Popeye is often an early warning of dropsy and it is often recommended that you treat it as such just in case.
Symptoms: Eyes of the fish will bulge as if they are going to pop out of the sockets.
Treatment: General antibiotics such as Melafix can be effective, but since it has a wide range of causes, it is hard to treat.
Sounds like it could have popeye.
