Regular Member Sarah Posted August 3, 2018 Regular Member Share Posted August 3, 2018 I have a friend that bought me a few fish from his outdoor pond that he was doing away with. One of the fish has orange eyes. He looks very healthy and is still growing but he has orange eyes and I really think he is blind. He eats off of the bottom of the pond instead of eating the floating pellets. Any ideas as to whatmight be wrong with him. I have had him for several months 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helper FishyMandy Posted August 4, 2018 Helper Share Posted August 4, 2018 Orange eyes don't sound particularly unusual. Do you have a photo? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporter Daniel E. Posted August 4, 2018 Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2018 It looks animalistic. That's really interesting I have never known of a animalistic Goldfish. You see it pretty common in reptiles, particularly snakes. Sent from my LGL84VL using Tapatalk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
