My arowana has cloudy eye again after my Australian holiday..

Hi all,
Just back from my holiday downunder.. Man! I need a holiday to get over this holiday.. Real tired… Story of my life!

Anyway, came back and found out that my arowana had a cloudy eye again. Ok this was my fault! I got someone to feed my arowana the past 2 weeks BUT WHAT I did not do was tell that person to take out all the uneaten food. I had pieces of market prawns that was decaying in there and the water was kinda greenish. (I think it was not only algae) My red arowana was pale! Boy was I worried! I also notice that there was a bit of liquid in the eye itself.

What did I do? As tired as I was, I had to change the water in case it got worst. I removed about 1/3 of the tank water from there. (I usually only remove 1/4 tank maximum but I decided that I would remove a bit more this time) I put in salt and black water as well together with the change of water.

That was 2 days back. Good news is my arowana seems ok now. The cloudy eye is slowly clearing and it has started to eat again.

Hope you all learn something from this.. Cheerio and talk to you soon!

Cheers!
Steven
