Hello! I am new to this website and new to the fish hobby. I've got a 29 gallon tank that recently got infected with ich. I've treated with herbal meds for 5 days and all looked good till this morning when I noticed 2 guppies still have ich.
I've switch herbal meds as of today AND turned the heat up to 81 degrees and added half a regular dose of aquarium salt.
I was worried about using the salt because I have ADF Corys and mystery snails. My fish guy said that everyone would be fine as long as I only use half the dose . Soon after using the salt my Cory's started floating to the top like they were dead, but they would start swimming when startled, then my snails started retracting into their shells and will only move in super slow motion like they are in pain and my ADF bloated to the point I though he was dead.
Luckily I have a small 5.5 gallon tank running and so I moved the bottom dwellers in there. I am praying I didn't kill my bottom dwellers because I love them so much ��
Anyone else have this issue or have any advice?
*Update Cory's,ADF and snails are doing better. I've moved to 5.5 gallon tank until my 29 gallon is doing better*
