Admin koko Posted November 20, 2003 Admin Share Posted November 20, 2003 If his eyes look like this this is what I would do:) 1. Get a heater and raise them temp to 78F. 2. Get maracyn 2 use that as directed. 3. Use 1/8 of a teaspoon of Epsom salt per 5 gals of water just once with the whole treatment of Maracyn2. This should be about a weeks treatment. Then if you can go to http://www.goldfishconnection.com and get the Medigold this is an anitibotic fish food to help this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member emmahj Posted November 21, 2003 Regular Member Share Posted November 21, 2003 My black moor got popeye a few weeks ago - one eye swelled to about three times the size of the other within a couple of days. I treated it with Melafix (thinking I could use something stronger later if need be), but actually the Melafix alone completely cured it within a week. Since then, it's occasionally started to bulge again but as soon as it does I just add Melafix for 3 days or so and it goes back down. It's also stopped pop-eye developing in one of my other fish. Wonderful stuff! (Also excellent for stopping fin/tail rot, healing wounds including ragged fins, and getting rid of bloody streaks). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
