Good morning,

I just bought 3 discus on Sunday and added to my tank (this is a new tank with no other fish in it). I left all the lights off on Sunday and no food, yesterday morning I fed them....all colour are very brilliant, fins high, etc. and they all ate. Fed again in the afternoon and again, all ate. Last evening I noticed that my Checkerboard Pigeon had a clear bubble over his eye. It doesn't seem to affect him at all, he continues to swim around, eat, colour is good and fins up. This morning when I fed them I noticed that the Yellow Checkerboard had a similar bubble on his side. Does anyone know what this might be? Could it be caused by the stress of the move or is it something more serious? Side note: I bought all three fish from a breeder with pristine tanks. All three were from the same tank. So far the Turquoise shows no signs of these bubbles.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Lori
