Cloudy Eye on Angelfish

[Kevin007]

One of my Angelfish has one cloudy eye, what is the usual cause for this?

I recently put limestones into the tank b/c I am getting ready to make it into a mbuna tank.

Could that be a factor? Stress? Poor water quality? (I just brought a 2217 for my 55 gallon)


Should I wait before chaning the tank into a Mbuna one? Is it contagious?

Could be from a physical injury, who knows. Best solution atm, keep the water clean as possible and do larger water changes. Also try to get a picture, maybe some one else will have an opinion.

Stick with large water changes and see.

I did a 100% water change 3 weeks ago, the fish are slowly being taken out of the aquarium to a full switch to mbunas. I will not be keeping the angelfish, but feel irresponsible to give him to the store in this condition + I don't know if the water is good or not.

I'll test the water tonight and post the results.

I was going to check the water and decided to check up on the fish...

HES FINE!?!? How is that possible, the cloudy eye gone in one day.

Mine had the same problem a couple months ago and it would just disappear as yours did
