I need a quick help.

all just lost my small indo and 6"thin bar.

now my 2 7" indo, 12" indo and my 13" wide bar is swimming on thier side. I don't know what happen.:eek:

The rest of the fish in there are good. Only my dats are going to die soon so i need help.

i didn't do anything to the tank beside my normal water change last night. I regular add aquarium salt which harmless to the fish. Wake up this morning and 2 my dats dead and other is gapping for air and lying on their side but still breathing. :eek:

My filtration are the same, i got power head with air pump plenty of oxygen. I just raise up the temps.

What should i do now? what is the best thing to do now? i need help ASAP or these expensive fish will die.:eek:
i don't want to happen like my first unsolve mystery that happen to all my fish.:screwy:
 
If it aint disease, then dont bother raising your temp. The higher the temp the less oxygen is in the water. What is your temp at?

How much salt do you add?

Do you treat the water that you are adding during the water change?
 
TEST THE WATER

did you use tap water conditioner

do another water change

why are you adding salt if the fish are not sick their is no need for it
