Whitespot in jag tank.

[Bogwoodbruce]

Last night i noticed whitespot in my Jag cichlid tank. All thats in the tank is 4 jags, the smallest 2.5inch and biggest, 4.5inch. They don't have it too bad yet. So i've turn the tempreture upto 30c, and doesed the tank with KingBritish whitepot treatment. (Which is a very good treatment) Is there anything else i can do to try and get rid? Luckily at the moment it's jsut a few spots on there fins, i just wanna get rid of it before it becomes more serious.

Ok i'll give it a try, the fish seem happier anyways, they aren' twithcing as much.

1 teaspoon of salt per 5.3 gallons (or 20Litres). other than that you just have to wait it out...

Just some aquarium salt, i added one tea spoon that was all thats was left. I'm not really a fan salt, i don't know if i'll add some more. They look to be getting better any way and aren't sat around the bottom, they are up and swimming. I'm also giving them some bloodworm which they really enjoy eating.
