Is it common for porcipine puffers to have cloudy eyes? I went to a few differant fish stores and they all seemed to have cloudy eyes. Is this normal or does he have flukes

Cloudy eye is common if they are sick. I think it is a symptom of either ick, velvet, or ammonia poisoning.

They should have yellow eyes with blue irises.

Their eyes should be bright, shinny and iridescent looking. If the eyes are cloudy don't buy it. The puffer is sick.

Are you sure it's not just the irridescent reflection?
