Golden Orf With Eye Popping Out

[speedingorange]

Well... he is still with us... swimming only in circles with his eye just as big as ever.... trouble is its become bloodshot very badly...

would i be better off putting him to sleep?

and what is a humane way of doing this?

Yes he not going to make it, blood shot eyes are a very bad bacteria infection.
I've just lost a panda cory, the anti internal baceria med did nothing for my little cory.
Sorry.

The goldfish looks to have Septicemia.

An antibiotic in food form would work best for this.
Lack of appetite, fin damage, reddish discoloration, clamped fins....are signs of septicemia.

hmmm

this one still has his apetite! i gues thats a good thing... could this just be a co-incidental thing ... down to the goldfish humping like buinnies pretty frantically over the past few weeks?

one did actually get chased out the water ... or does fin damage not apear like this?
