    You need to bathe them in de-chlorinated water that is about half their height. Pedialyte or any unflavored electrolyte replacement will help some. If you can find a fish antibiotic called Melafix you can dilute it in dechlorinated water at 2 drops of regular strength to 1 cup water and use that to flush their eyes. You would need to do it twice a day. That will help with eye clouding, but you really need a vet for chemical burns.

    Bathing to flush their systems is all you can do at home. You would have to keep them in shallow water that would have to be changed every 3 to 4 hours to attemp to flush out toxins.
