Illness

[LizardleFemme]

I'll post pics if needed but I'm already working on the issues. Just need quick answer on giving a hard salt bath. Amount per gallon for a salt dip bath. This is a last ditch effort after a long battle with illnesses popping up on this one fish. He quit eating 2 days ago. Before this ive been treating the entire tank. But just wasn't to do a LG dose salt bath on him. If after a couple more one on one treatments im probably going to have to put him down. My question is how much is too much in a single salt treatment. Using a medium sized tote he's too big for anything less than 10 gallons.

Are you treating fish? Shrimp? This may help.

Depending of type of fish your treating catfish or  loach I wouldn't Go above 1 table spoon for 3 gallons for no more than 15 minutes for 5 days  if your tetras or cichlids I would do 1 table spoon for 1 gallon for 15 minutes for 5 days @LizardleFemme
