I have a blue jaw trigger I want to put up for sale (he has been credibly accused of picking on inverts) but he has a gnarly popeye in one eye. Eats, swims, and generally behaves normal. He's had it off and on for months, just one eye. I assume it's irritation from wedging himself in the rock, not disease. The other eye is fine.

Do I need to medicate or do surgery before selling or should I offer a discount? What do people do in these situations? I figure a healthy specimen in a tank with no history of ich or any other parasite or disease (100% quarantined fish) should go for about $60.

Thanks
