Hey all,
I noticed my Chalk Bass has on massive bulging eye. I feel bad for it and I am wondering what the course of action is. I do not really have the means or time to setup a hospital tank. Should I see if it goes away on its own?

Nice pics!

Popeye on one side is usually from a trauma, and it's safest to leave the fish alone. I would see if it goes away on its own, like you said.
