green terror is I'll and needs help

Fish had what i thought was hole in the head....i tried to treat by doing major water changes often but that didn't help. I then noticed fuzz growing on it and the eye getting a white haze. What is the best coarse of action. I treated tank with general cure 2 days ago. Should I just wait it out ?

Treat with anti-fungal meds to cure the secondary infection. I LOVE Pimafix. It works like gangbusters on most fungal infections. Not sure what the best cure for hole in the head is, but that's definitely your root cause from what I can tell.

Enteric septicemia - Hole in the head, is a bacterial infection. So I would use Melafix and Pimafix together for 7-10 days. Treat the whole tank. Good luck!

Melafix is working....he's doing good .put him in a tank with smaller fish so he doesn't get pushed around while he doesn't feel good

Yup. I would be carefully optimistic. Hole in the head is the main issue, but watch for the secondary fungal infection. It looks like one was starting.
