We just acquired a 55 gallon tank with some gouramis and a silver dollar. They obviously were under a lot of stress with the move to our house. Had some fluctuating water temps too as we tried to figure things out. Just noticed this bug guy has something going on with his eye. Should we be worried? Other eye is fine. New to all of this. Thanks!

It's prob a bacterial infection. Eye cloud and pop eye are similar.

Thanks for this feedback. What if it is only on one of the eyes?

Yeah, it usually only affects one. I've had it effect a few fish, most survived. 2 lost eyes permanently. Only 1 died that i can recall
