coral beauty jumped out of the tank, damaged eye?
I got a coral beauty the other day. And when i was getting ready to move it to the tank from acclimation it jumped out and hit the floor from countertop height. Now one of its eyes has bubbled up, damaged from the fall but otherwise seems fine. Has been eating, and been staying in one corner.
Any advice? Will it heal up or will it need special care?

Consult an ophthalmologist? Consider enucleation?

It may go away; just keep him from fights with other fish or any further accidents.
