disolved salts and other minerals in the lake water will keep the fish healthier. are you adding aquarium salt to the other tank? this might improve the other fishes condition
i have a 20 gallon right now but im going to be switching them to a 75 gallon that my friend gave me after they grow, ill try addidng aquarium salt

Going by my Marulius growth, they will have out grown a 75g in well under a year. Trust me, these get real big, real quick and damn nasty too!
feel already bad, since at least 10% of my comments are :"doesn't work"well i will have to invest in a bigger tank, the ones in the lake get about 3 feet long, but there have heard of ppl catching 5 foot ones
