Hi bro,

Internal cloudy eye is not able to cure.

Kudos to your kind heart for willing to buy a "defect" tiger to care for it.

If you want to can try melafix (recommended by another tiger keeper to me last time) bro.. But remember to give lots of aeration as this medication will greatly reduce the amount of oxygen dissolved in the water. During medication, the water will have a strong smell. Refrain from any feeding. Tigers can go several days without food.

I got a bottle more than half full can pass to you if you want but collection at Commonwealth area. thanks.

No need keep it alone, it is not contagious and spread to others, will still eat and live grow normally.
