another sick clown post

[WRECK DIVER 61]

I have a clarki clown that just sits in the corner of the tank. He's geting dark,his eyes look like they are going to pop out of his head. I dont think He can controle his vertical movement (I know there is a technical term for this but cant remember it). what can I do?

The only thing that has caused the eyes to pop out would be popeye :eek: . But I dont know why hes swimming in the corner. To me the best thing I would do is to get him out of the tank with the other fish and put him into quarantine and ask your LFS for more on him swimming in the corner.

Wreck,

I agree get it out of your display tank and into QT. Your LFS may be great and a source of good advice but some are not. I would read all through these articles MarDisFAQs2 (http://www.wetwebmedia.com/mardisfaqs2.htm) PopeyeFAQs (http://www.wetwebmedia.com/popeyefaqs.htm)
PopeyeFAQ2 (http://www.wetwebmedia.com/Popeyefaq2.htm)
Especially read the first one as there is a case that sounds similar to yours. You can use CTRL+F and then type popeye in the box to find the references to popeye.
