White Eyed Clown Loach

[star4]

I rescued a group of clown loach the 3 larger ones have joined my group and I have the 4 smaller ones in a different tank. I have had them a few weeks now but I am concerned about one of them, since he/she arrived he has had a white ring around the eye. I have had a close look and there is no damage/fluffyness/swelling and it is behaving normally. Is there anything to worry about?

It's not common, but I have seen others like that. Doesn't seem to be an issue, just a difference in color pattern, like sometimes seen in the other stripes.

Cheers I was thinking it was just some sort of colouration/pigment defect in its eye, but having never seen another clown with the same thing I wanted to check

No worries.
