Unfortunately it looks like the diseased dwarf chain loaches I bought, returned, and was unable to quarantine left behind some of their white spotted disease.
To treat it I will be going with the pinned method outlined already (https://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/threads/one-proven-way-to-treat-ich-ick.20681/), but it fails to address at just what doses and how often the salt should be administered.
So for those who have done this method successfully, how much of the total salt did you add at once and how often did you add it?
Thanks in advance for the advice as this is my first time treating white spotted disease with salt.
