Did you add the full dose.
Any signs of gasping or laboured breathing.

i added a half dose, because i also have kuhli loaches.
ive set up a 45L tank to put the rams in to hopefully avoid having them infected.

Ok.
Good Luck.

Hi,
Sorry to hear you lost your fish.
I would always use Melafix to cure whitespot as it's a natural fish remedy which is safe to use. raise the temp to 30 degrees (slowly) and add a 1 1/2 recommended dose.
This might help for next time.
Cheers,
Moritz

hey, the tank has been cleared of fish for about 4 days in which time i did a big dose of white spot remedy, then last night i did about a 90% water change. when do you think would be safe to put the survivors back in?

Best to treat whitespot another week once spots have gone.
I would wait another week before adding fish back to the tank.
