Re: Poll on ocellaris clownfish

I voted no, but I was a yes before. I recently moved my Ocellaris clowns to a 10-gallon to make room for Clarkii clowns in my 90-gallon, and they're not adjusting well to the smaller space.

Re: about pop eye

There are a few options you've got.

First, you could move the affected fish to a quarantine tank and treat it with something like Melafix or Maracyn. This way, you're not putting your whole tank at risk.
