Fish Crazy
Please help me!!! I bought this wonderful OB peacock at the size of one inch, now he is about 7 inches. I have only had him for about a year now, and he is the tank boss, he is the only male with three females and a bunch of fry. Yesterday he started to develop cataracts, one eye was slightly swollen too. I have not have pop eye recently in my OB peacock tank, and this is not pop-eye! He has one eye that has a cone -shaped white bubble on his eye, and it has a small hole in it and it grew bigger this afternoon regarding the hole. and the other eye is now developing a cataract too. Please help me as this is getting bigger by the hour and it seems to be a fast working thing, what ever this thing is, and that usually indicates a faster death rate when it develops quickly, and no other fish has this in the tank. i have not bought any new fish mates either for about 5 months.
