Morning guys

After learning that Fahaka's would generally wreck havock in planted tank, i cleared most of the plants in my main tank (planted). I placed the Discus and Fahaka in a temporary tank and did the resacaping

After rescaping, i did a 50% water change and a few hours later after the water cleared up, i added the Fahaka into the rescaped tank. He was exploring the new environment and even ate. However this morning before i left for work, i noticed his eyes is a bit strange. i have been in this hobby for sometime and i can usually tell if its a cloudy eye or injury with ease.

Since i am new to puffers, i would like to see your views if this is either Cloudy eyes or an Eye injury. Pictures below

That's how light reflects in their eye. Looks fine to me.

the difference in lighting after the rescaping probably made the eye reflections more noticeable than before - looks fine!
