Ok well i just noticed it today that under his eyes its a little saggy and i dunno if its a disease, or what. Its kinda like Bulging out more than it should and its like his whole eye moves. It's never looked like this before so im kinda worried. ill show you some pictures, but they might be a little blurry.
  cant really see it that well but its there please help if you can! |

It's very common to have these sorts of problems, esp with fish with their eye's stuck out like in moor's.
If their is an infection try treating with myxazin or melifix these will help and do several water changes over the next 2 weeks, changing 15-20% of the water and then treating after the water change. |

Impossible to say, they often catch the eye's on decor and stuff so cam cause scraches and minor infections that way, or it's possible that it's got an internal infection (harder to get).
Or it's even possible that it's got an internal organ problem which is affecting the internal water levels. So what i've described is a basic start to help the usual stuff, also adding some salt to the water (not table salt) will help if the internal organs have a problem. |
