PostSubject: cloudy eyes?   Wed May 14, 2008 5:32 pm

Ok, so the last 3 days ive had a glow light tetra die and a molly. Stats are fine (everything 0, nitrAte 40 - due a water change) but looking at my fish now a molly has cloudy eyes (like a cloudy film over them) and so has my remaining glow light tetra.

Changes to tank: only thing is i moved my female betta from one tank and put her back in this tank (with the dying fish) about 5 days ago. She has a VERY swollen belly??

Also in another of my tanks my fish are slowly disappearing. Again stats are normal (as above) BUT they just disappear. I now only have 1 rummy nose tetra and 2 cochu blue tetras (i DID have 6 of each when i last checked about 1 month ago). The aquatic frog i have in there is getting a bit big now, could he have eaten them?? he's not fully grown yet though. Do tetras sleep on the gravel at night? i find it hard to believe that a frog can CATCH a tetra????

what do you think?

I reckon the frog could have eaten a tetra, they do sleep or at least rest so could be caught then.

It maybe sounds like you have something bacterial going on there though.

Without knowing what is causing it, it's always a possibility isnt it? That must be some frog you've got there! Just tell him that his legs are a delicacy in some places - that will sort him out :lol:

Do you have a spare tank you can q the ill fish in?

Glad to hear that - are they getting better, or just the same?
