10 2-3" tigrinus
9 3-5" endlicheri bichirs

why don't you throw in some salt and crank up the temperature? that usually helps with my loaches.

good luck and nice tigs.

IME, tigs don't react well to salt. Best to put the loaches in a QT filled with tank water and treat them from there.

Nice growout Tong!

i already threw in a little salt and the temp is at 83. i dont want too much salt to effect the tigs. as long as the ich doesnt spread its fine.

yup i think from what i remeber i killed a tig with too much salt. too many dead tigs to remeber. not making the same mistake again.
thanks.
