the diet consists of a large amount of algae from a piece of live rock i have in with her that she seems to love as she is always picking at it, also i am feeding her flake food, brine, a mixture of frozen shrimp/squid/octopus/crab, and a mixture that has seaweed and cowsheart soaked in garlic.
She's eating as far as I can tell, I don't feed her large amounts of food but what I do feed her she eats.
The QT's perims are all pretty good, no ammonia or trites and low nitrates, temperature is 79-80, salinity is 1.023.
Recently noticed she has a little bit of a cloud beginning on the eye the white patch is near, definately not good i don't think. If I can get a picture of it I will.
Everyone has told me these fish are hardy and then I did a search on them in the disease forum alone and got a lot of hits that sound similar to this, why are people saying this fish is hardy?

thank you Terry i will try it. If I can't find this medicine is there a chance the eye will heal over time because this fish was indeed netted with much of my disaprovement.
I'll check my fish when I get home tonight and give a report, where can I find this medicine at btw? Thank you for the responses so far. I've learned something from all this....before you buy a fish do a search on the fish's name in the disease and treatment forum alone and see how many hits you get, if you get a lot of hits this fish probably isn't too resistant against diseases.
