[@larryc835]

Epsom salt, Api aquarium salt and Melafix. Great video dude.👏👍💯

[@juanriverajr5183]

Ich X worked really well for me for the same issue

[@tabarakaquatics8067]

I would try Seachem Kanaplex for cloudy eye.

[@MissChelle]

I’d go antibiotic next.. maracyn? Good luck little fishy 🇦🇺❤️

[@georgewilliamssr5230]

I sprinkle small amounts of unprocessed sea salt in my tanks from time to time. Just to help Osmosis for the fish.

[@r.baglio9717]

Ben, I add teaspoon of salt per 5 gallons . has worked in the past. but honestly the eye does not look good. fingers crossed !

[@noyesphotography1979]

im afraid that eye is too far gone but thats just being able to see it on video. could look different in person im treating mine right now but no eye damage just small spot and i caught it super early so i think im gonna be ok

[@windowlicker532]

I would up the salt…but I’m no expert…maybe 2 table spoons before meds👍

[@leonszura6423]

I think you're gonna see an improvement..upping the salt a bit would be my suggestion..you are going to be successful...good man Ben

[@BenOchart]

So many different opinions. I hope yours is the right one! Thanks😀👍🏻

[@section8230]

For most fish diseases, I am terrible at diagnosis, so just use the Aquarium Co-op trio (ICH-X+Maracyn+Fritz ParaCleanse) and hope one of them takes care of it. Hope the salt works for this.

Pj aqua maintenance , Hi Ben like always fabulous work you doing. Do you add aquarium salt to all your tanks as a preventative. It’s seems to help all the years I keep fish.

[@canuckaquatropix7796]

The eye looks lost from the video, I hope that's not the case. I would use the salt at 1 tablespoon per 5 gallon along with Seachem Stress Guard. Good luck 🙏

[@markfranklin8831]

I wish the change would of been all he needed hope the salt bath helps and if not I'm going to set back and see what the over all KZbinrs have to say? Hoping for the best.👍✌️

[@billyd.8753]

Ben in addition to what you are using you should also put in some API Water Conditioner with Aloe. The Aloe does help to sooth and coat the eye.

[@FrozT99]

What plants do you have in there?

[@BenOchart]

Artificial ones

[@thierrynoe655]

Hi Ben, I already used this method and If the eye is not to much damaged it should work. Fingers crossed. Generally I also combine any treatment with eisha EXIT. Eisha has a very interesting line of treatment products for fishes. If not available in US, you can buy those products on the internet. I always have Eisha 2000 and eisha Exit at home. It is miraculous. Thierry from Brussel's Belgium.

[@alejandrolisdero4531]

Watching the video with my phone, it seems he lost his eye...

[@Jayr2374]

Nitrofurasone

[@stevesaquatics165]

Ben my fish just had the same injury to his eye I treated him with antibiotic and he was better in 3 days I wouldn't want salt on an injured eye can you imagine salt on a wound yikes

[@samperson8787]
