Bro isa, I think 30deg shud be fine ..... :)

Bro sinner, if u have tried the antibiotics for 1week aredy and still no improvements, can change to Melafix instead. Please remember not to mix medication at once into the tank cause it'll stressed out the fish and can be very fatal. Daily partial water change is very good ... :)

Pop eye is due to internal bacteria, it is normal for fish suffering such problem not to eat. Dun worry, concentrate on curing the fish first. :)

Swollen eyes will often be accompanied by clouded eye....

I wouldn't use antibiotics given by GP on fishes, it may cure them but in time the bacteria strain will be resistant to the antibiotics and this makes it even worst.

You should try melafix instead accompanied by heater set to 28degrees from then add some bubbling and let it starve for few days, no worries.

Change water daily at 10% or so keep the water clean, by a week or so should cure.....

Do not overdose melafix, overdose by triple to quarduple amounts will burn their eyes and cause further cloudy eyes....

Remember to do a 50% water change followed by carbon filtration for at least 12 hours before you start on melafix.....oh and use dechlorinated water.......good luck.

Agreed, good ideas to stock some of these useful medication. Have to b more careful with Pimafix, it is a bit strong. :)
