 Bulging eye on my trigger. My poor Nigger Trigger. He's been hiding for a few days, but eating sparsely. One of his eyes is Ginormous! It's sticking WAAAAY out. Any cure or treatment?  |

| Re: Bulging eye on my trigger. you will need to take the trigger out of the display tank and put him in a quarantine tank.You will need to give him a 5 day treatment of Maracyn.If you try to treat it in the main tank the meds will cost about as much as a new car lol. |

| Re: Bulging eye on my trigger. I thought you should only medicate if BOTH eyes were popeye? It's only one, but unfortunately he's not eating anymore either. |

| Re: Bulging eye on my trigger. A bulging eye can also be from an injury. Either way, I highly doubt a full maracyn treatment would hurt anything (in a QT). No swollen abdomen? Also, what are you feeding?

| Re: Bulging eye on my trigger. Ok, I just got my QT setup yesterday. He's going in tonight. He definitely has a fungus infection. He's got a whitish film growing on his body. Poor guy. He's eating a mix of frozen meats, red algea, that I chop up and combine with garlic and vitamin drops. |

| Re: Bulging eye on my trigger. I have one too and he has something sticking off of his eye. I think im my case though he got a little to close to my yellow tang's spike, because he hasnt shown any signs of poor health. |
