Keep water clean, and mix up the diet, keep water clean and feed 1/2 the amount of food daily, and most importantly.....keep water clean.
good advice... daily water changes is correct... and try to keep him stress free.... no tank mates that are aggressive to him because that will stress him... and varied diet and some aquarium salt added to the tank... all helpshaynchinook334;3195727; said:
Try using some Kent trace minerals and removing the carbon. Unless the water turns yellow (which is shouldn't doing regular water changes) don't bother putting it back in. It worked for my Managuense's HITH.
should i keep the light off to prevent stress?
and are there any medications that i could use to boost the heeling prosses.
