fish losing their eyes and dying! Please help!!
:sad I need some help. I have a ten gal tank set up with two dividers. This gives me three areas to keep my fish. Each area has one male beta. The first area also has one frog and one algea eater. I have this beta for about 8 months and the frog and algea eater for about 4 months. The second area I have had my beta for about 6 months and one algea eater for about 8 months. And last area I have had my beta about 6 months. My algea eater in the last area died two days ago. I don't know why. My water is kept clean and is filter each day. I tested the water and it was perfect. So I went and got my self two new algea eaters and one frog for my last area. I added them yesterday. This morning I saw one of the new algea eaters was missing an eye. I thought maybe he came that way and I did not notice. A few hours later and he died. Then I saw the other new algea eater was acting bad off and my algea eater in the second area was dead and also missing an eye! I put in parasite clear just in case of parasites. I went to check on my fish about an hour ago and the other new algea eater in the last area is dead ( he still had his eyes) and my algea eater in the first area is acting bad off as well now. My betas seem fine as well as the two frogs. What do I do? My water is fine. I also cleaned my gravel about 4 nights ago. I have never seen fish lose thier eyes like this! I don't think it is the other fish! I love my algea eaters and frogs just as much as my betas. Please help!!!! :sad :sad
