I raised the temp to 82 degrees and put 9 tbsp of aquarium salt in my tank. I only had two fish with a few spots on them and they still have a few left. It has gotten better but not gone. My water parameters are all good. Wondering if I need to break down and use the meds? Thank you, Jaime

All are great but my fav is #3

Nice, Love the decor :)

Sorry, don't remember the name if the kit for testing. I got it at the lfs. The gills are not swollen or protruding. He acts just fine. Just none of my others angels gills look that way and I didn't want to ignore it and find out that he had flukes or something else. I can check the brand...

I tested my water and they are as follows Nitrites 0 Nitrates 0 Ammonia 0 PH 7.0 Alkalinity 40 Hardness 25 As of now the temp is at 80 degrees (I just raised it a little again) and everyone seems fine. Eating swimming etc. The two rummy nose still have their spots on them. Cannot see a...

Here are the water parameters: Nitrate - 0 Nitrite - 0 Hardiness - 75 Alkalinity - 40 PH - 7.2 Ammonia - 0 thank you

Yes, I cycled the tank with ammonia. I meant that I have only had the fish for 4 weeks. Sorry about that. The little guy was like this when I bought him though. I just got back from buying test kits and I will test the water on my lunch hour and let you know the levels. Thank you

OK, I added 10 tbs of salt and up the temp to 82 degrees. I have a 55 gallon tank. It is definitely ich! When I got home tonight it had definitely gotten worse. All fish seem fine, eating like piggies, swimming everywhere. After adding the salt and raising the temp I did notice a few fish...

I've attached two pictures of one of my angel fish. He is small, his body is probably only 1 1/2 inches. Could you take a look at his gills. They are red. He is active, eats like a pig and seems fine. My other angels are not like that. The tank is only 4 weeks young and I am currently...

I have angel fish, gouramis, platys and rummy nose. Thank you

Does all Ich medicine turn your water blue? Does the medicine kill the good bacteria? Thank you

I will check my readings tonight when I get home. The temp is at 78 degrees. I have angels, platys and gourmais in the tank. Is it ok to put salt with them?

One of my little rummy nose has a couple of small white spots on him. Could it be ich? I've been watching it for a couple days to see if it spreads but not yet? What should I do if anything? Thank you, Jaime
