Hi.
I have an ACF that I adopted over a year ago. Recently her tank was damaged and I had to very quickly get her into a temporary container (about 1.5 gallons) that I use when I clean her tank. It took me a week to find a new tank, and another two days to get everything setup and water temp, etc... at the proper levels. So she spent about 9 days total in a small container with no filter, etc...
I noticed that her right eye is injured by what looks like a cut (possibly from a piece of broken glass), and is very red. I can't really see her very well in my temp "tank," and just noticed this today when I got her into the new tank. I'm not really sure what I should do here. I don't want her to get sick or something, but I am really tight on money and can't afford a visit to a vet. It does have me worried though.
She is displaying normal habits. Eating, swimming, etc... Other than her eye, she appears to be her usual self.
Hi welcome aboard, she looks normal on the 2 photos but the last one, it appears she has a serious eye injury. It doesnt appear to be bleeding though. ACFs in general are a fast regenerating specie when it comes to injuries and lost body parts. Just keep her well-fed and her water in optimum water condition and wait for a few days to see if she has healed this injury
Thanks for the words of comfort. I hope she gets better soon!
