Sweet. I'll let this bad boy run for a week at 30 degrees and then hopefully that'l have my problem sorted (y)

The fish were too far gone I think fldnthe treatment to even work. I was at my local every day with pictures and she did say they look too far gone. It's going to tropical after 10 days or so of ich treatment with heat and medication. Ii have fish ready on my other tank, baby mollies 4 of them...

Any idea of what you think it could have been? The fish have all died out as of this morning and i've placed a heater in the tank at 32c. I'm running it for a week at this tempreature and also adding the meds in for good measure. Then doing a good water change, running the tank with activated...

Their fins are actually peeling away where the spots have been on their tails. I don't think these guys are going to make it. But i'm going to persevere and keep the medication going.

Couldn't wait til the end of the week to post an update as things are getting worse. Took this picture to my local store as well and was told due to the savarity of the white spot they doubt the fish will make it. Here's the picture if anyone else can take a look at it. The spots don't even...

I will take all the info on board and see how the treatment goes. I will give it until the end of the week and report back on the progress :)

When i dose the tank at the start anyway the whole tank goes blue due to the dye, but withing a few hours its gone completely. Is the meds being removed by the filter as far as i'm aware i don't have a carbon filter.

What do you mean treat for 5-7 days? as in only treat the water when there are no spots for 5-7 days or immediently? And by that do you mean add the doeses every day.

I'll just head down to the fish store tomorrow and see what they have as i don't like waiting for stuff to come in the mail :L and i'd rather shop in my local stores! The API has Malachtite green and PVP Not sure if i can use a medication to combat the fin rotting

Step ahead of you! had a piece of filter sponge placed in the tank since last wednsday :)

Yesterday the amonia was 0.25 or 0.50ppm and the nitrite was 5.0ppm I used some ammolock after i did a 50% water change and it hasn't spiked again so i'll just keep an eye on it every day incase anything changes :thumb:

Indeed they do, there are bubbles behind the fish in the photo at the back of the tank, but you can see all of the spots clear as day on the fish. I'm using API white spot treatment currently as it was recommended by my local fish store since yesterday.

My name's Neil, Have been keeping fish for just about two years and currently have a coldwater and a tropical tank setup. I'd love a saltwater tank but at the moment my apartment is only big enough to hold these two small set ups :( I'm here to learn. I've always loved fish i find it very...

So i've re done the test. Amonia is looking around 0.25ppm Nitrite 0ppm Nitrate 0ppm Water quality seems to be fine, I'll just have to wait a few days and continue the treatment to see how it goes... i'm pretty sure it is Ich, but as i said the end of one of the fishes tail seems to be...

Tested yesterday, but will test again later yesterdays results- Amonia 0.25 nitrite 0 nitrate 0
