Clownfish swim bladder issue?

[schafon]

Has he been treated for flukes?

Yes he was, using General cure

Yes, it does look to be either blind, or with damaged eyesight. Not sure what all can cause blindness; age, chemicals, infections, injuries and tumors all can cause that. None of them are really correctable. Supportive care would be to isolate the fish and then hand feed it.

That sucks, but yes I guess that's what I would do. No medications I can try?
Is there any chance that it will get better with time?

I was thinking maybe because the previous owner kept him in the bag for long time maybe he got ammonia burns in his eyes? Ever heard of something like that?

Sorry, I can’t say if it will get better or not, these cases are pretty rare so I don’t have a lot of data to draw from.

Thanks Jay!
I'll update here if there is any change for similar cases

Hi everyone, condition doesn't improved.
Today noticed stringy feces + anal obstruction.
There is internal redness at near the black dots at the back of the fish, he had those from the they I took him in - You can kind of see it in 00:23 in the video.

He eat very small amounts (but looks like he tries - reacts to food in the water) - I need to feed it straight to his mouth for him to accept food.


From the research i've done it looks like Intestinal worms / Internal parasites / Internal infections / Fish constipation.

What should be the action plan for the guy?

Thanks

Hi,
This is exactly what I’m going through with my clownfish currently. Were you ever able to figure out the disease and what did you treat it with? I’m almost certain it’s swim bladder disease, however I’m not able to find a ton of forums so it’s keeping me questioning. Thanks!
