My pike mysteriously died the other day (first fish I've lost since I set up the tank 8 months ago) couldn't see any major damage on him, was eating well, water was fine etc.
Now I've noticed my ctenopoma is developing lots of white spots and seems to be acting irritated. Will attack pictures soon.
Raised the tank temp to 30'c, turned off both lights and ordered some aquarium salt, I just had a couple questions.
1.How much salt do I need to add to my 180 gallon and for roughly how long to clear the ich/velvet?
2.Been struggling to workout if the salt or any other treatment will negative effect my BGK or Black spotted eel?
3.If it is the dreaded velvet should I medicate with something other than salt?
