HELP. Angel Fish eye cloudy - swollen

[ronmorales]

I noticed for the past 2 days my angel fish eye is cloudy and swollen. It has been in my DT for over a week after being QT for 30 days. I dosed 2 rounds of Prazipro while in QT. He rubs his eye against rocks and sand. Not sure if it parasite or he injured it. Do I put him back in the QT or is this a injury that he will cover in the DT. Currently the QT has 3 anthias in it. I've attached a video. Thanks for your help and advice.

I would do a fw dip while moving it back to a qt. This would rule out flukes. An acriflavine bath would be appropriate as well.

Once in qt treat with antibiotics.

Also you can dose Epsom salt (1 tablespoon per 5 gals). Use regular USP grade Epsom salts with no additives. this helps with swelling.

There is lots of information on this, you are not alone.

Is just one eye cloudy or both?

Should I do this in the Display Tank or QT?

I could only see one eye swollen on the second video. Best to get it out of dt and move to qt. Fresh water dip along the way then antibiotics for sure. Like mentioned above.
