eye flukes?

[Delphinus]

Yeah, sorry, I just have no experience with Paraguard so I have no idea what to say. If Seachem says it is effective against flukes I see no reason not to take their word for it.

One possibility is that your trigger HAD flukes while in QT, and this is just some residual scarring or abrasion.. if so, it should clear up on its own.

To my eye it is hard to tell the difference between a fluke and any opaque spotting on the eye. It's hard to tell if this is just an artifact on the photo but there are 3 suspicious spots on the picture other than the eye: right behind the right side pectoral fin, right in the middle of the dorsal fin, and right at the top in front of the caudal fin (the "tail"). It could be nothing but it's worth double-checking to be sure.

For now I would do nothing other than wait and observe. It could just be leftover from the previous treatment and eventually clears up on its own.

sorry those white spots are on the aquarium glass as I did not have the time to clean the glass today and those are some coraline spots on my glass. No spot on the fish and he's very healthy with ogre appetite

What I decided to do is before I take the fish out I will monitor these spots on the eyes and see if they move around the eye. If they do move then I will know it's flukes. If they are not flukes then it will remain the same and slowly go away. I will take photographs each day and compare them to see if these move.

When I first got the fish I beleive it did have flukes but inside the eye that had the popeye because there was something very apparent and white inside its eye that cleared in a few days with Paraguard.
