w00t!! Good News Lance. Hope he makes a good recovery!

......Sigh...........So I guess I'll have to convert the 33g QT to a permanent home for Bubba. No way can he go back into the display with his very limited eyesight. Even if the bullies don't kill him he won't get enough food.

Note to self: Never, ever hand-feed a 6" blind trigger. "OUCH"

Aww bummer, I had high hopes for him. I recently had a wrasse go through the same thing, it had popeye for awhile then it receded but he was blind in one eye. He seemed to do fine and it wasn't until about a month later that I realized he had gone blind in the other eye (without any eye enlargement) and there was no way he could find food even when I was holding it right in front of him. I finally had to put him down. The whole thing was incredibly depressing. Not sure if I could have set him up in his own tank though

Damn! Lost my oldest fish today.

Pajama Cardinal I got in 2007. He was full grown when I got him so I'm guessing he was probably about 8 years old.
