No change in parameters. Tested it twice the day before yesterday. Will do another wc today. Ordered melafix from amazon as we dont get it here, so will have to wait for that to arrive. Is it normal table salt?

Just done another test:

Ph: between 8 and 8.2
Ammonia: 0 ppm
Nitrite: 0 ppm
Nitrate: between 5 and 10 ppm

Did you follow my link? That site has saved many of my fish that were ill.

Sorry, I didnt even see your link. My mistake. Will look into it right away. Im thinking if its IPs causing the cloudy eye. I read that could be the case. His belly looks like he could have some parasites. Will try getting some prazi pro in him whilst waiting for the melafix.

Thanks.

They sell Melafix at Walmart.

We dont have walmart in denmark and it is not allowed to sell any kind of fish medicin here. I ordered some from the UK which was the closest seller I could find.

So, just an update on Swayze.
He wasnt eating at all. I ordered the medicin. But before it arrived I had to go to hospital to give birth. It all happend so fast and there was a lot of complications so I never arranged for anyone to look after Swayze. We were gone for 5 days. When we came back Swayze was back to his old self. Happy and eating again. I was so happy.
About two weeks later the coolest thing happend. Swayze began laying eggs!!! Just pouring out of him. I mean her. Now she lays eggs once every month. She doesnt eat the day its going to happen and she looks a bit bloated, so its easy to tell when its aboit to happen.
Anyway, she is happy again an eating and growing well.
Thanks for all your help

LOL, you BOTH gave birth! Her eggs aren't viable though--best to remove them before they foul the tank.
