If he's cloudy I guess he's going to slough again.... I'd still be very slightly concerned about the 'wrinkly' thing though.... maybe his environment is slightly too dry?

Until recently I thought Rosies were okay, but there has been some debate that they may in fact contain quite large amounts of thiaminase.... maybe best to switch to a known 'safe' fish such as salmon or trout. Have you tried 'scenting' pinkies with fish?
