FriendlyLoach Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I have some goldfish in a pond that I think have flukes (they are flashing), but I was wondering how effective a salt dip would be? They have been scratching for little over a week now. Any tips on how to do it? Also could I do a salt dip on dojo loaches? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Cory Posted December 1, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 1, 2020 I don't do dips. In a perfect world you get all the parasites on the fish. This still leaves parasites in the pond/aquarium that just reinfect. If dips worked. All fish would be dipped before leaving a fish farm and disease would never spread essentially. It can be difficult to get everything in 1, or even a few dips as if fish hold their gills closed, much less exposure to parasites in the gills vs the outside of the body.
