So i have a porcupine puffer and have had him almost a year now, but today when i came home one of his eyes lost the blue fluorescent color to it, does anyone know what it could be and why does this happen?
What is wrong with my puffers eye?

Well, that's a new one on me. I see a lot of eye issues with porcupines, but never saw this before. It almost looks like a cataract, but those take time to develop. Is the fish still feeding normally?

Aquarists need to inspect their fish closely every day, for signs of impending health problems. It is much easier to resolve a problem when it first starts, than to attempt a drastic emergency treatment when the fish is close to dying.
