Regular Member whitner Posted October 19, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 19, 2008 I was at a fish store today and saw a beautiful black moor in a tank by himself. He is about 7 or 8 inches long including his tail (his tail is really long!) He's been there for a few months, now, and I think I know why. One of his eyes bug out more than the other. A lot more. It's been that way as long as he's been there. He appears to be normal except for a little white fungus-looking blotch on his dorsal fin. Otherwise, he's perky and all, so I was wondering if it was uncommon for a telescope to have uneven eyes like that. I wish I had a pic of him. Despite the eye thing he really is a handsome moor. Not that I'm thinking of buying him, or anything. I don't have anything big enough for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Fishmerised Posted October 19, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 19, 2008 It is every common to see telescope fish with uneven eyes, and I would think if you've been watching the fish for several months and it appears to be healthy, then it is healthy. Shame you have nowhere to keep him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Chrissy_Bee Posted October 19, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 19, 2008 Check out my George's eyes I don't think he's quite this uneven any more, but he's not symmetrical either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member whitner Posted October 19, 2008 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 19, 2008 Chrissy, that's exactly what the one if the fish store looked like. I wish I did had space for him. His tail was way longer than any moor I've ever seen, too. It was like he had veiltail in him somewhere. Hey, maybe he did? But he wasn't as round as most moors are. Hm...all I know was that he was pretty. Next time I go I'll get pics and post them in the thread. I wonder what causes their eyes to be uneven like that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
