Bicolor angel with one big clear eye

[jasonrusso]

About 2 weeks ago I bought a Bi-Color Angel from Petco. He had one cloudy eye so I almost got him for free. I had an empty QT so I figured why not. It was only one eye, so from what I read it was probably due to injury.

After 2 days I treated him with a 4 day course of Erythromycin. After that I started proactive CP treatment and during the CP treatment I add 2 doses for API GC.

So here we are, one eye is still bigger than the other eye but it is perfectly clear. He can definitely see out if it because he sees me on that side. He eats nori, krill, pellets, etc and is active so he is healthy.

Should I be concerned? Is this probably due to injury and it is still swollen?

I'll try to get a picture, but he is elusive and it's hard to get a close-up of an eye.

Cloudy eyes could be a sign of flukes. It's usually hard to ID them directly, but I'd try a FW dip to see if any fall off...

I treated him with prazi (in the GC) and his eye isn't cloudy anymore

If its one eye and clear, I would try dosing Epsom salt (1 tablespoon per 5 gals) to help ease the swelling.
