Corneybacteriosis anyone had experience in treatment of this....?
 
Corneybacteriosis
Symptoms: Bulging eyes
Treatment: There are a few commercially available products which treat corneybacteriosis. Penicillin and tetracycline are among them.
Information: Corneybacteria causes swelling in the head which will push the eyes outward. It is caused by overcrowding and water of poor quality, having an excess of ammonia and / or nitrites.

Check your water quality. Try to bring your qater quality back up to par if it dropped down. Most pop eye is caused by new tanks w/ ammonia/nitrite spikes, over crowding, inadequate filtration, atuff like that. All of the causes, sounds to me, are related to water quality. Try bringing your water quality up a bit(not that I'm saying it's bad/poor or anything). If that don't do it, give them an antibiotic it says.
 
My ballon molly just recovred from pop eye. And all i did for it was use Cure-Ick, which clear it up over the course of 2 days. It really works
