Hello fellow MFKers,

Below is a link to the post where I tell the story of how this goby got into the shape he is in. I wanted to get some ideas from people as what to do to aide in his recovery.

So far I've just been treating with standard aquarium rock salt to provide electrolytes and aide in gill movement. I'm setting up a quarantine tank tonight so I can treat just the goby, so I'm willing to try anything to help this guy pull through...right now he looks HORRIBLE. :cry:

My question is...what has worked for people in the past? Any tricks of the trade will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for all of you help.
 
I had one of mine that was in BAD shape and all I did was treat it with aquarium salt and put it in a tank with a drip on it and mine pulled through and made a full recovery.

Since you dont have a drip I would recomend doing a 25% water change every day. Also the salt should be 1cup per 30 gallons of water.
