Allright lads.
This morning I woke to find my black moor swimming about as normal..... except one of its eyes was completely gone.
After I got over the shock I immediately added a high dose of Melafix.
After carefully examing the wound it seems that it was literally sucked out: there are no signs of injury on him, or any gouges around the eye socket. Which immediately makes me suspect my filter intake. I recently got an Eheim 2215, and have noticed the powerful intake on the thing. Foolishly I didnt get a filter intake strainer (which i amended earlier). So what I think has happened is tht my moor got its eye stuck in the filter intake.......
He looks ok enough like; atm hes busy rooting through the substrate for food =P
Anyways this is my point: I've dosed him with Melafix. Is there anything else I can do for him? I feel guilty enough as it is =\
