I was looking at my fish last night and noticed that one of my smaller Silver Dollars (about three inches long) has a cloudy-like spec on his pupil, his other eye is fine. None of the other fish, including two other Silver Dollars, have any problems with thier eyes.
A few weeks ago we bought two new fish, a Needlenose and a Bronze Cory. Both died within 3 days (the Needlefish had a cloudy eye). When the two new fish died we checked our water and did a full test panel of pH, nitrate, hardness, ammonia, ect. All our tests indicated that our water was prefectly fine. When we took the two dead fish back to the store to get a refund they told us we needed to test our water. We told them we already had and everything was fine. They said that sometimes the test kits can go bad and that we should bring water in to get another full panel test done just in case our kit was bad.
We went and did a few errands, went home and got a water sample, and took it to a different store to have our water tested there. They said our water was perfectly fine too. Since they said our water was fine we bought some new fish (Neon Tetras and Jewel Tetras), all of which have since died. We also had a Red-eye tetra die this morning. When I noticed last night that the Silver Dollar had a cloudy eye and that we had another dead tetra this morning, I tested the water again. Once again, our water is fine.
Does anyone know what the cloudy spec on the Silver Dollars eye might be and how to get rid of it?
