Bandi Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Hi, one of my young cichlids had sustained an injury. It appears his eye is now gone. I have isolated the fish in a hospital tank...but what do I do? I live in a small town where they sell almost no pet supplies...namely fish medicine and I am nearly two hour drive to the nearest city. Will my fish die? Will it need antibiotics? Can salt help?

Blue Ram Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Keep it in pristine water conditions with no other fish to stress it out. It should not die if it lost its eye to an attack but it's important that it be under no stress until it heals. Aquarium salt would most likely be beneficial.
