My goldfish has patches of grey and my mollie has something on its eye.

My mollie has what looks like a white or grey growth on his eye and its huge! like a huge bubble but sometimes it looks more cotton-like. i treated it with a fungus killer from the pet store and the fungus(?) went almost completely away so i treated it again with the same stuff a couple days later like the stuff said to(to help prevent secondary infections) and not even 1 week later the fungas is back! so do you have any ideas what this stuff is and how i can best treat it? also my goldfish has some faded grey patches on its body and it isnt just his coloring. what is this and again, how can i treat it? :help:

its popeye/hazy eye from poor water conditions. you have to use popeye meds to take care of it.

What size of tank is the goldfish in? what are your tank parameters?

Sounds as it wasn't treated long enough and just come back in full force. Treat again and leave longer this time. Problem with fungal meds it messes with your bioload in your tank. Keep up with regular water changes and keep their home clean and this should not be a problem.
