Kaleidoscope's eye problem hasn't really progressed for better or worse (noticeably, at least) since my last update. Both eyes still look the same to me. This could be because he hasn't been accepting food, so hasn't gotten medicated. Tonight he did finally accept a shrimp, after a small struggle of getting him to want it. I don't think it had much medicine in it by the time he got it though; I think most all of it dissolved in to the water. He turned super white while he was eating it. He was probably the whitest I have ever seen him since looking at him in the shipping bag.
Ever since he went completely blind up til now he hasn't been using his chromatophores very much. The only time I see him change color dramatically is when he is eating. Texture changes are extremely minimal. He still sticks to the glass the majority of the time but he will sometimes venture on to the rocks.
My favorite thing to watch him do is swim. He doesn't do this very often; I've probably seen him to it just a handful of times since I got him. Tonight he swam for me a little bit (I believe 3 very short times). It was still fun to watch though.
Before today he totally refused food since the last time I fed him (3 days ago). He wouldn't accept the frozen shrimp. Yesterday I tried giving him an emerald crab and he would have nothing to do with it. Maybe feeling full is a side effect of the medicine?
I think I'm going to start soaking the shrimp in Tetracycline again. That way it will absorb into the shrimp. I will keep injecting it too. I also might try to get him a new thing or two for his diet (maybe scallop if I can find a seafood market... Friday is my day off and I have nothing to do
). I think this will make him more enthusiastic to eat as well if he has more of a variety.
I am going to attach some pictures of him. One is of him eating, 2 are of each of his eyes, and another is a full shot of him.
