I ran across this article that I thought I would share with you all. It's about putting orange peels in the tank to improve health and eating habits of sick fish. Read it for your self.Ā
Ā
Has anyone heard of this before? It's a new one on me but very interesting.Ā

"Tyler credits āeitherĀ Dick AuĀ (a well known San Francisco author and discus breeder), or a transshipperā¦I canāt rememberā with sharing this little bit of fish husbandry voodoo with him [Editorās update ā weāve confirmed this came from Dick Au]. The trick was to place an orange peel in the aquarium for 24 hours. Each day, remove the old orange peel, and add another. As he explained it, you can do this for up to seven days before you should āgive the fish a break.ā A few days āoffā with some carbon and a water change and you could repeat the ātreatmentā if needed. But wait, I havenāt even told you what this supposedly does!"
