Question

one eye is covered in white . all seems ok otherewise

Answer 1

I can sympathize - I have three saltwater tanks.

Sounds like a bacterial infection. See this website (good reference for all saltwater disease problems): http://home2.pacific.net.ph/~sweetyummy42/disease.html

Any condition/name that's shown in red is a link to a page with more specific info on the biology and treatment for that condition.

Answer 2

take the fish back where you bought it and make sure you have a smaple of the water your fish has been in
and yes salt water tanks are vvvveeeerrrry expensive good luck my fish all died at first too
