I recently bought a coral beauty from petco, after a day I thought I saw ick so I put her in a quarantine tank. Started her on ick meds, Jungle Ick Clear, now she has a swollen cloudy eye and white sides. (see picture) Now I have her on Melafix drops for her eye. Wondering if anyone could tell me what is wrong and/or what I could do to help.

Bacterial infection. Needs antibiotics asap. BCs on dwarf angels seem to go sideways very fast. Fastest treatment is Cipro in a bath. In a QT the best med is NFG powder. Next is the trifecta of Furan2 + Kanaplex+ Metro.
