Reddish belly?

[B.K.]

For dangerously high temps, dropping small soda bottles full of ice or large soda bottles filled with cool water will help bring the temp back to safe levels without endangering the fish with chlorinated water. Just prep enough bottles to allow for a rotation until they're no longer needed.

That means this method will bring temp to desired, and most prob temp will not raise as high again?

just as a side question if what was suggested does not worklook later for a lump to develop, if one does monitor and slowly up the slat levels cause it's most likely a kind of intestinal parasite that has completed it's life cycle and is now exiting the fish. my sen had this happen to him twice and i got him through it with mostly just raising the salt levels.

Wow, u mean the parasite actually explodes out of the belly? It sounds scary as i fear internal parasites the most
