    Huh? It sounds like you have a predator, not a disease.... What makes you think otherwise? Because you haven't mentioned it.

    I know that you said that your params were all "inline" but it would be helpful if you listed them anyway since popeye can be caused by poor water quality.

    Pop-eye can also be caused by physical damage, such as nipping by another fish. From the other comments, these seems to be what's happening.

    Is it just one eye or both? Usually if from damage, it is just one eye. If it is both eyes, i personally would look for a different reason.

    Fish that large? I seriously doubt it. An emphasis on "seriously." =) I'm with "SAY" on the matter, I'd be interested in a current posting of all parameters as well.

    Hmm interesting. I have one, and let me tell you, he's quite the trouble maker. And he's in a 240g 8' long tank.;)
