    I just found out my Royal Gramma have clouded left eye. I think maybe I was add more LR and rearanging them like 3 days ago. Not to rule the water quality out...what is bad quality enough to cause any stress to fishy?

    Oh, he's also eating formula 1 pellet 2 times a day each time about 4 pellets.

    My water parameters:
    ammonia - 0
    nitrite - 0
    nitrate - 5 -10
    ph 8.2
    salinity - 1.022/1.023

    Thanks!

    Ok, his eye is getting a little bit clearer, but still cloudy. I haven't done anything yet. Should I do a water change or leave it until he get all better?

    My philosophy has always been, if it aint broke, dont fix it. If hes getting better without you doing anything, leave it until hes better and dont fuss with it.
