Anthias 1 clouded eye each

[scrappy35]

While feeding this morning I noticed one eye on each of my 2 Anthias looks cloudy. They act fine and eat good. I feed a mixture of frozen and pellets. Catching them for treatment will be a chore if I need to. What am I looking at / treatment I have a qt up and running.
thanks

Any ideas?

I think I figured it out. I had some flashing going on and treated the tank with prozi, within a day their eyes look much better. I’m thinking some sort of fluke? I have read to treat again in 10 days, is that from the end of the 5-7 day treatment or the beginning?

Prazipro should be redosed 7 to 10 days after the first dose being added. The reason is that some flukes are egg layers, and prazi doesn’t kill the eggs. You need to try and time things so any eggs present have time to hatch out and then hit them again.
