Tank is now down to 1.009/1.010

Fish are still active and appear to be happy, need to get some more hides ( they seem to like fake plants) but I will
Keep everyone updated !
Mandarin is hopefully being sold tnrw, so then the sump system with the rock will be fish free for the whole time and I'm HOPING that this process will kill the stooopid parasite

Fish can handle the lowering of salinity quite well, it's the up they have a hard time with.

I will do it very slowly, I'm wondering, would the raising of the salinity in my 150g by letting fresh evaporate be doable ?

Nice idea, just use 1.025 sanity for top up water. That may actually be too low...but the idea has merit

And yes...still stopping in for my mandarine.

Well depending on how much evaporates the tank is right full now

Good luck Brandon ! I hope they all survive for you !

I tossed a small hanful of salt into the sump where the water drops in from the tank.


never had an issue

ive done this as well as made a heavy brine and added to high flow area of my sump to increase salinity slowly

Lost the flame this morning, he stopped eating a day ago, and definitely was the worst fish in the tank for symptoms
On a side note, when I netted him out, this cane with, it was dead, but was on the flame,

Eucnid worm?

 

[Neopimp]

Pretty. How are the rest of the fish looking.

They are looking good actually, but I don't wanna get my hopes up, :/
Not too much signs of ich anymore so hoping that phase is over and they can start the membrane phase and choke and die

 

[Neopimp]

That's good. It's been long enough that you should start seeing a substantial improvement.

Fingers and paws crossed here Brandon. Is that the head in the middle of the photo of the creature? They are gross from any photos I'be seen. And deadly to tank inhabitants. Glad you found it.
