My Tank Thread
My Aquarium Showcase
I posted this in my build thread, but figured I'd share it here too...
My diamond goby has been pretty skittish ever since I got him, but this week I discovered a possible reason why he may be so easily spooked... he's missing an eyeball... ;Cyclops like it's completely GONE! :eek: ;Woot
I managed to catch him out and about, and noticed that he's missing even the socket "bulge" where his eye should be. He definitely had both eyes when I acclimated him. :confused: The wound seems completely healed at this point, but DANG!! I can't imagine what may have caused that injury!! ;Hurting ;Hurting
Here's a few pics I caught of him after lights out last night.
This is his "good side" (the reflection makes his eye look weird, but it looks normal):
This is a front shot where you can note the missing eye:
This is his injured side with the missing eyeball:
