Zebra Danio - Swollen Eye's

[da7thson]

Hi Guys,

One of my tanks is a 125L with 5 Zebra danio's and 4 honey gouramis (plus a couple of shrimp). It's been like this for over 12 months and i've had all 9 fish nearly 2 years and all's been well.

I've just looked in my tank and one of the Danio's seems to have swollen eyes, almost popping out of their head in comparison to the others. The tank gets around 50% water change every week and conditioned with Prime.

Any idea's??

cheers

Andy

I know it is hard but could you provide a photo? If you cannot get one on the forum I suggest you take one and show your lfs so they can get you some treatment for it.

Looks very similar (eye's bulging out, with like a white film around the front of the head).. I'll try and get a photo and also go and get the meds.

Cheers
