when my dats are sick, I water change daily

if they are not sick, I change my water 2-3 days ^^

bad water quality will make my silver bully my IT.. even if the IT that is as twice as big as him

keep water clean as best as poss, seperate from other dats too and keep is solitary if poss.
treat with salt is it has damage.

The symptoms to me sound like bad water quality. Keep up with water changes or lower bioload/add more filtration.

generally i kill or dim the lights, isolate, increase heat, maintain water, and cut back on feedings until i can determine whats wrong. On most occassions, it turns out to be a stressor for that particular dat. When i find the stressor it usually gets them back to normal.

can try cutting out salty foods while you are treating the fish also.

Same here. I would also treat with salt, like recommended in other posts. The best preventative measure you can take is frequent water changes throughout the week.

You can also increase the temp...that will help some. I usually increase airation as well due to there being less dissolved oxygen in warmer water.
