A whole Week at 86F? Won’t that high a temp harm the other fish(black neons,cherry barbs, red rainbow, blue ballon ram, swordtails, angelfish, neon dwarf rainbow, and corys)

Just reposting update on gold ram…do you think it has ich? I’m concerned it may be given this latest picture.Thanks

Thank you very much for the advice..One last question to clarify….to keep the salt level at the same level as you advised should I continually add the salt daily or just one time (up to your prescribed period of no more than 2-4 weeks at those dosages?).

What should I treat it with?

Dear All: this is the gold ram which I can’t tell whether it has a bacterial fungus or ich. Please tell me what you think ..thank you

This is definitely a ph problem.. To increase the ph from a very toxic level below 6.0 you must add about a quarter of a teaspoon of baking powder-known as sodium bicarbonate(liquid ph up is useless)immediately… See where the ph level is in 24 hours and increase it only again with a little less...

Those are Gold Gouramis same fish as blue ones just different color..Can be aggressive to same species.

Thank you for the advice. I am hesitant about putting salt in the aquarium having read that corydorus and tetras are sensitive to it. If you believe it wont harm them with a reduced dose, what dose would you suggest? I also read about Furan 2 as a possible alternative...do you agree it might do...
