Several things can cause cloudy eyes. Internal parasites, such as protozoa or flukes, are one cause. Another is the onset of cataracts. I'm not aware of any treatments for those problems. Bacteria can infect eyes damaged by injury. Treatment with a good antibiotic should cure these infections. Dietary deficiencies, such as lack of vitamin A, may contribute to poor eye health.





The most common cause of cloudy eyes seems to be poor water quality, especially when the pH drops too low. In my years as an aquarium dealer, I ran many water tests for customers. When they complained of fish with cloudy eyes, almost without exception I found the pH in their aquariums to be extremely low. Often, the pH was so low it tested off the chart.





Large fish produce a lot of waste. For example, did you know that a 10-inch oscar is the equivalent of 1,000 1-inch oscars?





Any way, the solution is simple. Check the pH. If it's below 6.8, and especially if it's below 6.4, change more water more often. If it's as I suspect, that's all you need to do. The fish will heal right up without medication. If that doesn't do it, choose one of the treatments aboveCan i take my Oscar out of the water and clean him with tooth brush?
Nooo... is this a serious question? You shouldn't be allowed to have pets. Go to a pet store and get him medication. Just ask someone working there to help you find what you need.





You should also use a water conditioner with Allantoin in it which is a natural skin protectant for your fish. I use Start Right.
Umm.... NO.


1. That won't help him


2. You'll destroy the slime coat on him


3. You'll kill him.





Try melafix or pimafix. Those work pretty good with infections and diseases.
As cruel as that would be, my main concern would be not to brush your teeth with it when you are done. You could save the toothbrush though, and keep it for when an unwanted relative stays over.
Are you serious?! NO WAY!


1. It will suffocate him.


2. It will tear his scales off.


3. That wont help fin rot or cloud eye.


4. It will ruin his slime coat.


5. Thats just stupid.
You're kidding right??





If you were to do this it would completely destroy his slime coat and many other things not to mention how stressed he would get!





Good luck!!!~~~~
no I don't think thats wise to do. Maybe call somewhere like petsmart or your local pet stop and ask them whats best.
your an idiot.
