Colu Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 It looks like ich i would start treatment with ich x if your nitrite are to high you could be over feeding or your filter is no big enough to cope with waste products of your fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 (edited) Have tried putting in some floating they will absorb some of the excess nutrients Edited June 10, 2023 by Colu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 (edited) I would treat with ich x, dosing everyday and then doing a waterchange on the 3rd, 5th and final day of treatment. You can use salt to, it does miracles. Also remember to do filter matnience. Often I forget and I wonder why my tank water is dirty, then I remember (when was the last time I cleaned out the filter) b/c their goldfish I would keep the tempeture at what it is at. This worked for me in 6 days. And my angelfish, had WAY more ich. Edited December 10, 2020 by James Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colu Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Do a small water change everyday until your nitrites go down if treating with ich x it recommendations do1/3 water 24hour after each treatment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 You could add a sponge filter to up your biological filtration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
