Anyway, the guys at the fish shop told me to put ping pong balls into the tank. They say that it might help the aro to look up and maybe correct its eye on its own. Hope it works.

My aro is about 9" now. It might catch up with my other aro soon.

Regards

droop eye aro can be placed in the FGT to expedite treatment when they r young but w no guarantee of its success...

Frankly, don t put too much hope of the recovery....
