I have a waspfish with cloudy eyes that I cannot get to eat. Even live. I have already dosed Myxazin for any chance if bacterial issues. It is in a QT with a Harlequin tusk, 2 domino damsels, a toadfish, a skelator eel and a fingerprint toby. My question is, as I know copper and cupramine will be too harsh for the toby and eel. Would I be able to dose Sterazin by Waterlife? I am still trying to get my hands on CP for the mean time.

Cloudy eyes in qt are often burns from ammonia. Do you have an ammonia alert badge by seachem? If so, if it's anything other than yellow, Then you need to do a large water change.

I cannot really tell from the photographs, but another possibility would be flukes.

I also noticed you have live rock in your QT tank, this will absorb medications and make treatment difficult.

How long has the qt been set up?
 
It had cloudy eyes when I got it, which I have noticed each time when I go to this certain shop. Always on preds too. I have the alert badge, the LR(maybe 100-200g) is only thin acro style for him to hide amongst and the tang to graze on + the toby to crunch when I don't have access to shelled foods. The QT has been set up since january I think. I also used a fully cycled filter full of marine pure balls. My thoughts went to eye flukes when I first got it almost a week ago.
