I recently got a squirlfish also know as a manpachi in Hawaiian from a fish store. I have him in a 50 gal salt water tank with a hanging filter over the side. The tank has been cycling for a month and the levels are normal. There is no live rock, a couple of hermit crabs, an baby moray snowflake eel, and a maroon clownfish that I got on the same day. The squirlfish has very big eyes. One eye develped this white cloudiness over the pupil. I researched it and one site said it could be a sign of a parasite. I treated the tank with quickcure for ick for three days. The eye is not better. Now the cloudiness is spreading over the whole eye. It is a little bigger than the other but not really. I don't know if this is pop eye or what. If it is what should I treat it with. I don't want my new fish to die! Please help.
