Hi every one,I am new here and I am from Italy so forgive me for my bad english(I will try my best)and please correct me .I have been keeping fish for the last few years and bileave it or not all of them died due to parasite problems.The problem is .There is only 1 pet store in my area and the other one is really far away(I dont have a car of my own).Here we go :
My new (and last) tank is 42 usa gal and it has been cycling for a long time now all the levels are down.Ammoni,Nitrite are zero,Nitrate is 20ppm and ph is 7.5.(Hagen and wardly test kits).I used to have angels and they seem having the usuall problem , fish are not active just keep standing where they are , scrathing, and they seem like shaking some times so I return them back yesterday.After reading your article on ick and the heat treatment I think it worth a try.
I set the temp at 88f as some of you suggested and tommrow I will add some mollies in there and see how it goes .DOES IT REALLY WORK?
I also heared that salt water BATH would kill the parasites on the new comers.Please help?
