| How long have you been treating it for now, Ant? If there's no change after a week then I'd suggest trying one of the Interpet treatments. Not sure which one but you could check on the bottles. | |

| He's had it 4-5 days now, but I've also had a quality issue with the water - it's had a green tinge and I've been doing loads of water changes so I dont know if that has affected things at all |

| Is its eye cloudy or cleat Ant, can you make out anything like that. I know it's hard to see sometimes on fish that wont stay still Apart from the green tinge, is your water ok 0 ammonia, 0 Nitrite Nitrate less than 40? | |

| It looks clear Diana, and the fish is quite well apart from the swollen eye. I still havent got any Pimafix. perhaps I should try and get some of that tomorrow and start that, see what happens. |
