Lee - I just received a small Moorish Idol and put him in QT (30g). He started eating the next day so I started him on Mardel Coppersafe. Two days after he arrived I noticed a single cloudy eye. I gave him another day to see if he would overcome the infection on his own but it appeared to get worse as it became whiter and seemed to be sloughing the exterior layer of tissue. So I started him on Mardel Maracyn Two for the infection. It has been 2 full days on the Maracyn Two and he is showing signs of improvement. The white infected tissue is gradually disappearing. My main concern now is that as this white tissue goes away, I can more clearly see the damage left behind. There arrears to be a hole or crevasse where the lens of his eye was. Is this something he will regenerate or should I prepare for a partially blind fish? He never stopped eating throughout treatment. I can also verify that at the moment, he cannot see out the damaged eye.
Thanks for any insight you can provide Lee.
