Coral Beauty sick?

Hey Y'all

Bought a Coral Beauty last Thursday. Was at LFS for about a week without issue. Has been doing well at home, and eating well. No signs of sickness, stress, or anything else. Except, I noticed this morning, that his right eye is both cloudy and inflamed. I have read that this could be a bacterial infection, but the treatment methods vary from nothing to heavy chemicals. Being in the DT, I don't want to do any heavy chems; but what do you guys think? Is there anything to be done, what should be done, and is this survivable?

cloudy eye or eyes can be flukes. Prazipro is safe for DT treatment. Epsom salt works for popeye
