I have 6 kuhli loaches bought 2/21/15. 4 are "normal" but 2 stand out.
The first one is missing an eye on one side. It's like a speck. He has trouble finding food and runs into things a lot. How should I care for him? He's also very pale and small compared to the rest.
The other is a pale solid blackish color all over. He's the same as the rest activity wise (they're all very active) but he looks kind of pink and transparent and sickly through his markings. I know the colors can vary, but he seems off.
So, is there anything wrong with them that I can help? I know I can't make one grow back an eye, but should I cup him to make sure he's getting food? And I'm not as worried about the second one but people keep commenting on how he looks dead.
Thank you!
