I recently brought some neon tetras from my LFS. One of the males has pop eye which I assume is from bad water conditions since the rest of the fish are fine (don't worry I didn't pay for this one, just wanted to give him a chance).

I currently have him in a quarrintine tank with methylene blue and salt (24 litre tank - 5 drops meth, 3 tablespoons salt)

Hes been in there for about a week and the eye hasn't gone down. His colours are fine and hes eating. He is a little sluggish when swimming.

Any ideas on what else I can do?
