Why would my goldfish loose their eyes? I notice this because other goldfish are aggressive to the fish without the eyes?

    Must have gotten water in them.
    seriously..Do you have a sucking catfish(the one which sticks to the glass) in the tank? if yes, then she might be the culprit .
    Many aquarist don't know but if this catfish is hungry then she sucks slime and eyes of other fish.

    That would explain it... The other fish bit/ate them. Seperate the docile fish from the aggressive ones.

    I have 2 KOI goldfish with the others. I do think that they may be possibly the ones "sucking" the other goldfish eyes out. Is this possible? Should I separate the KOI?
