just keep up with your water changes/ and clean up the food after your fish eats.

so
Do water changes, 20% 2-3 times a week.
raise temputure, add salt

he thinks my water are really bad to begin with.. and back to GShock is the slim shedding preventable?? and i assume that slim shedding are bad correct? what how is the best way to cure that problem?
Well, a little bit of shedding isn't harmful. It's just when you see them shedding so much that you can literally see "clumps" of slime, then you have a problem. Since fish shed slime coat when they are stressed, its understandable that they shed when we are doing water changes. For example, my rays also shed a little bit when i do my water changes, mainly becuase i like doing huge changes like 50-70% each time. A little bit is fine, but when it gets extreme, your fish is very very stressed.
 
these few days i'm VERY busy... just did a change thurs night and by friday came it went down a little and tonight it got little bit worst.. thanks for the concern all... keeping the wc tom..keep you all posted how it goes..

what happens if this is coming to this situation?? you see about a size of 1/2" bits and peices of slim coming off and half of the aros body's slim coming off when i do each water change. today when i did the water change 45-5% i notices that the aro's gills to almost the anal fins slim are shedding.. i usually match the water temp to the tank which now set at 83.. what shall i do? with fin rot and this slim shedding?? i have added about 8ozs of stress coat into the tank with two cups of salt.. i have seen one of my friends aro died because of stress out and he did a water change and the aro died.
