That looks like a minor injury. The fish looks normal otherwise, it looks like it was picking at stuff in the video, so I presume it’s still eating?

I would just keep an “eye” on it for now.

Yes thank you Jay, it is eating fine I just noticed it had a bubble eye so I was wondering if I have to give kanaplex or metroplex

For eye injuries, erythromycin/Maracyn 1 seems to work the best, but antibiotics should be dosed in a hospital tank, not your DT.
Many times, eye injuries heal on their own in a month or do.
