Please help, my angelfish has a cloudy eye.
If anyone could help with what I should do for him/her, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Water changes, water changes, water changes!!!!

Cloudy eye is typically caused by prolonged exposure to high levels of ammonia and/or nitrites.

I do 25% weekly water changes, in fact I did one just last week.
However, after reading your reply I did a 50% water change.
I will check my parameters later and perhaps another water change.
I appreciate your help, Thanks!

Thanks Gill, I performed a 50% water change today. Will check my parameters and perhaps another change tomorrow.

Update: my angelfish is doing much better. I went on a water changing binge, invested in a better gravel vacuum and treated her with AD Super Ick Cure. I also remove the guourami that had been nipping at her fins and placed it in another tank. So all is good. Thanks to all who took the time to advise me.

It's really that simple! Well. Not always but mostly! Your fish's behavior will always alert you if something is amiss in the tank. I'm sure that angel was sulking a bit prior to the physical symptoms??

Thank you Mikem! I got her in March. She was "dime size". I'm very proud of her!
