Waiting on water to be COLD enough to do one... ya. 78 degrees is as cold as it gets. Sadly. I use a fan, gets is to 75 in an hour or so, @Tony s. I am worried, I do not want another one to die..... Then i would have only 4.😥 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony s Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 If you have aquarium salt, you might want to dose it. It should help some. Up 1 tablespoon for 5 gallons. Plants won't like it, but should recover 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helps it keep its strength Hard to understand, it does not say when to do it or how long…. Thoughts?? He is looking worse. One eye is a little swollen now…… 😔 pics of him. He might not make it. He looks worse. No ammonia. But maybe nitrite? I hope not???! pic of it won’t load. Goes black…. ? I’ll try later Edited September 1 by Whitecloud09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony s Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 I’d keep the full dose going. And it’s probably going to get worse before it gets better. Meds take a bit to build up but the disease is going strong before we see it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
