    Hi my demasoni chichlid is swimming very oddly an has developed a white pupil (like cataracts in humans).. The thing is he looks really sick an I'm going on holidays in 2 hours and need to know I I should remove him (if he's going to make the others sick while I'm away) or what to do.. I do Reg water changes and use prime.. My water perameters are fine I just checked.. Have no idea what to do and don't hav medication at home either apart from White spot... Help please!!

    Okay.. It dosent look like a cotton wool like growth though.. Just like a White film covering the pupil.. If it is fungus what should I do? Take him out or leave him?
