Ok, so in the 55g tank i bought used they had one serpae tetra that had one eye, we named him jack and moved him to the 29g that had 5 platties along with the RBS and CAE that were being aggressive towards bigger fish that came with the 55. I also moved in 2 paradise gauramis after the male started building a bubble nest. I just noticed a minute ago that the tetra now has no eyes!!! :no: :sad: :-( i dont know if it's the gauramis or the RBS as he was housed with all of them before. i dont wanna kill him, but not sure what to do, maybe a seeing eye ghost shrimp??? :/
 
Whats are rbs not every one knows with the lettering of a fish.
The chinese agae eater is very aggressive towards other fish as it gets older.
Poor fish with no eyes if he can' find food best to put him down.
Research your fish before you buy,, and make sure the fish you put in a tank together are compatable.
As it ends in disaster.
 
Could be the CAE! although I might be talking rubbish.

I have a CAE and have been researching them to try and find out what I can do with him and apparantly they like to suck on other fish. So it might be that he sucked the poor things eye out! lol - that sounds really silly I know but I've heard of kissing gourami's sucking other fishes eyes out so it's possible!!

Sorry I know that's probably not much help but it might be worth keeping an eye on the CAE to see if he's showing a fondness for sucking other fish!
 
Sorry, Rainbow Shark.
MY CAE doesn't seem to mind the smaller guys, but i moved him and the shark into a smaller tank because they were both being aggressive towards others. Neither of these are fish i bought, they both came with the 55g i bought stocked.
I think i can get a tank soon to throw him in, and i'll just watch the eyeless one, it did look like he was findind food this morning.
 
The shark and cae mignt not be compatable as they are both aggressive fish.
If the fish with no eyes is finding food bless him, he should be ok.
