What you do if your fish is blind?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thanks GarNiac, Industrial, Allan01230, Twofish & Darth Scohin for the valuable information.
I have tried using a feeding clip to test the id shark's vision and it hit into it. Tomorrow I am going to buy NLS pellet with garlic and see if it will try to eat some or not. I know my fishes love NLS pellet because I am using it now.
Pictures will be post then.
 
This is the albino ID shark I am worring about and the 180 gallon tank.

Can you try and hand feed him? That may work. My fish take shrimp out of my hand.
 
if you think he's blind get him a seeing eye dog or seeing eye fish---lmao----beautiful set up, anyway maybe you should set up a separate tank just for the shark until hes eating regularly

Thanks Chicklette, I hand feed my stingray everyday and I tried on the shark but unsuccess.

Thanks the big kahuna for your advise. I will get the id shark a stick and a pair of sunglasses first so the other tankmates know the shark is disability and let it go first everything or need help if necessary.
 
I have a blind common pleco. He's one of my favorite fish. The fact that he has no eyes whatsoever doesn't stop him. He still patrols the tank swimming around like a shark.
