Sick ram

[Mercury]

This didn't get ay attention in the disease forum, so I'm asking it here. I bought a sick ram (stupid, I know). He has a white foggy spot over his eye and discoloration in the iris. I treated it with Jungle Fungus Clear (nitrofurazone, furazolidone, potassium dichromate) a couple weeks ago, and again earlier this week, and the eye hasn't cleared up.

Is it an actual fuzziness coming off of the eye or is it just that the eye is clouded?

 

[Mercury]

Just clouded

Do some water changes. Not sure about rams, but in discus, clouded eyes usually mean bad water conditions (most likely at the store and hasn't had a chance to heal in your tank yet). So i would assume the same and just try and keep pristine conditions in there.

Mercury, how's your ram now? Any better?

 

[Mercury]

Thanks for your concern. But he hasn't improved, and the water is as clean as I can keep it.

I don't know what your cloudy eye looks like, but sometimes it can be caused by an eye fluke or other types of parasite or protozoan. It could be an injury to the eye or it could be bacterial or fungal infection.

I just did a quick search and came across this site:
Fish Eye Disorders

I hope you can figure it out, good luck!

It looks like gentamycin would be better than the drugs I used for the number of diseases it cures. What is a good medication containing it?

I found an image of a cloudy-eyed ram. The iris is golden like mine, but it has a cloudier eye. Another similarity is how there is more white at the center of the eye.

I pulled it off this site: DwfSAmCicFAQs
I wish I knew how the owner's fish turned out.
