Pop Eye - My Poor Krib

[abyatt]

I have a Kribensis with a nasty case of Pop Eye. Its a male with no other symptoms except he is less active than usual.He comes to feed with the other fish and will swim comfortably. I have put some anti-internal bacteria solution into the tank and 2 doses haven't touched it.

The Eye is distended and there is a large pink growth above it.

Is he terminal or would I be euthenasing a fish that could be fine?

Help please, any suggestions?

I believe popeye is caused by bad water conditions/stress aswell maybe. I dont actually think there is any specific cure for it, Once my bala had popeye, I put him in a separate tank with perfect conditions keep the lights low and minimal food and it eventually cleared up.

As far as I know thats all you can do. I hope this helps.
