Have an Albino catfish that lost an eye somehow. Hideous. Now she swims to the top speed to the top in what appears to be a suicidal dash, or is it a mating habit? Is there anything I can do for her? I guess they don't sell glass eyeballs for fish.

At an LFS I worked at, a knife of some sort (black ghost? it was a long time ago) sucked the eyeballs out of a large number of albino cories before we removed it. I got a few of them, and they went on to live happy, productive lives. Dunno if having one eye is more of a problem than no eyes, though.

That may be the culprit. I have a black Ghost knife in the tank with the albino. Maybe I will put him elswhere.
