Hi , I have found out, via this forum...ty, that u shouldn't put salt in the water with clown loaches. I was told by my local fish shop, that each time u do a wc salt must be added as per instructions on pkt. I have been doing this when I do my 25% wc weekly. So, would this explain why my loaches appear to be bleeding at the gills and have red stripes down the body? They are happy boys, active, eat well and play with the group, so the gill redness doesn't appear to be bothering them. Should I stop putting salt in the water, I have a 240ltr tank, 3 loaches, 1 shark, 1 balloon Molly, 2 platys, 2 catfish, 2 bristle nose catfish and 3 fry. Ph is 7.3 , Nitrate is about 5 or less. What are your thoughts ?? Thanks
