    Sick fish.
    Hi everybody.
    I have a little black cold water fish (Steve)
    But he seems to have some sort of infection in his eye.
    Hes eating OK and swimming around grand but I hate to think he's in pain.
    Is there anything I can do to try clear it up?

    Hi holly, I would hate to think of a little fish called 'steve' being in distress. I know nothing about fish, ornamental or otherwise. I did find a website that is pretty comprhensive as to fish ailments and eye infections seem to be a big thing with them. The causes start with poor nutrition. You could be feeding him not enough or the wrong mix.

    Here is the website:
