	cory with no eyeballs
dan.76 Fingerling Posts: 27 Kudos: 29 Votes: 0 Registered: 06-May-2004	i was just having a close look at some of my cories and noticed that one of the bronze ones has no eyeballs at all. one side seems healed but the other looks as if this just happened. there is no inflammation at all and he is very active and healthy looking in all other respects. does any one know what could have caused this?

Blind fish have a problem finding food except the Blind Cave Fish who has perfected the art of lateral line vibrations, but only with live prey. --garyroland.

Maybe we can figure out what might have done it and get it out of there. Do any other fish in the tank have any injuries? I would dose some melafix while the cory is healing. He might not make it with no eyes but the melafix will at least prevent infection in the socket.
