Hey,

I never noticed this before but I don't think it's normal. I did some research and seen the fearful pop eye, now I'm afraid they have it! Or is this normal eyes for growing Oscars?

There in a 60g tank and I change 25% of the water every week. There fed frozen bloodworms regularly and there only other tank mate is a large Pleco. I keep the tank very clean and is at a constant 78 degrees.

They seem like there normal selves. They get excited when they see me and have there usual crazy appetite. They don't seem to have any symptoms that somethings wrong.

I've done research but I've seem way too many ideas on how to cure pop eye, have any ideas?

Thanks a bunch.

If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved

This is a common thing. I thought exactly the same when i first started keeping oscars. If it is pop-eye it would get worse each day. Your fishes eye look fine and dont have pop eye

Use photo bucket to put any photos on the forum. Make sure that you upload the correct size photo to photo bucket, no more than 500 pixels wide. Then underneath each photo, you have four boxes, you click the last box, doing this copies the code automatically which you then paste into the forum
