just wanted to give you a bit of an update,
I have now moved him into the 60L tank, and have switched his food to Tetra Gold Japan (read elsewhere that sinking pellets would be better) which he seems to be doing ok with.
Tank reading are below
Ph 8.2
Ammonia 0-0.25
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 10-20
He seems ok for now, I have only been feeding him the new stuff as he has had no problem figuring out the food is now on the gravel, smells pretty strong, can fish smell the food?
I have notice 2 things of concern
1. I have never noticed him poo before but lately its very obvious as it seems very long and stringy, takes sonetime before it detaches from him (looks pretty much like the new food) is that normal?
2. Slightly more concerning is that the little fins or whatever they are that started pine coning, 2 of them in particular don't look good, one is quite large and the other seems almost like a see through bubble ready to pop?
I have not tried the salt yet so this was my next plan, do you know how much epson salt should be added to a 60L tank? and how much I should add each time over the 24 hours? I also noticed people mentioning antibiotic food? Can you recommend what I should try/purchase?
