cloudy eye - angel?

Hi,

I have a flame angel and today I noticed one of his eyes is cloudy.

Could this be from injury or bacterial infection? What course of action to take?

many thanks

Re: cloudy eye - angel?

Has your tank recently cycled? What is your ammonia at? Mine got cloudy eyes as a result of high ammonia.

no, the tank is cycled but I will double check the ammonia. Again, its not both eyes, just one.

It could be an injury or bacterial infection. Also when my fish had Ich I noticed that their eyes sometimes would get cloudy, likely because of secondary bacterial infections. Usually if not severe this problem goes away on it's own provided you have excellent water quality.
