Any idea what this is?

Hi,
Looks like the eyes of some of my fish are almost cloudy. One of them is all puffed out? Amy idea's? Is this pop-eye fish disease

Yup, time for a hospital tank and some antibiotics like kanaplex. But I'd wait for the experts to confirm.

Thanks for the reply! uuugh first disease ever in in my tank in almost 8 years!!!! I tried catching him but too fast and always hiding in the rocks. Is Kanaplex safe for the DT?

Unfortunately not. Is this a new fish? Any other issues in the tank?

Pop eye is often associated with physical injury, decline in water quality (nitrates too high). Sometimes it resolves other times a secondary bacterial infection sets in. The Epsom Salt treatment can be found in the link below.
