I bought a Lamarcks Angel a few days ago and I don’t know how I didn’t notice it’s eye is cloudy/a little swollen. I realized that when I got home and it’s been 3 days, he’s eating well, but I don’t know if I should medicate him or leave him alone. He’s currently in my quarantine, and I’ll try to get pictures later today and post them. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated.

If it’s just one eye, it may just be a bump/injury. Since it is in quarantine now, you could treat with Maracyn 1 (erythromycin). Post the pictures though, that would help.

I’ll post as soon as I get home thank you so much. Do you think I should use that medication though or just wait it out?

Depends on the severity, pics will help.
