angel fish eye problem

Question
I have several mature angel fish and I have noticed two of them seem to have a pinkish growth covering the outside of their eye...thoughts

Answer
It doesn't sound like any specific disease.  Angelfish are prone to eyes problems.  Suggest getting you water tested for ammonia, nitrites and nitrates, to rule out irritation from chemicals.  Keep you water as clean as possible, make sure your temperate is up around 80F.  Make sure your fish is not being picked on by other fish and watch for other symptoms.  I hope this helps.
