Magnificent Foxface

Have had him for 4 yrs or so. Only other bigger fish in tank is a yellow tang. They have been buddies for years. No aggression by the tang ever. He has not eaten for 5 days. No signs of anything except 1 cloudy eye. He's getting weak. He will bump into things now ocassionally. Is staying out in the open in camo(see pic). He used to stay under the rock in his territory.
Have Kanaplex & Focus in food but like said, yes not eating. In 180g. I might be ab lo e to catch him but QT is only a 20g long. Thoughts?

The cloudy eye could be an indicator of a bacterial infection: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/bacterial-infections.191511/

Treating in a QT w/erythromycin would be best.

Thank you dear! I'll move him tomorrow then.
I dont have Erythro but do have Furan-2. Can I use while I order Erythro?
