Hi
I just noticed that some of my goldfish are starting to have white spots on their body (Ich). I wanted to do a salt treatment but I have read somewhere that water conditions need to be optimal. The problem is that I just changed my filter and I am having high amonia levels. I am doing daily water changes until the amonia and nitrate levels stabilised. What should I do? If I do the salt treatment, I cannot change the water for three weeks and therefore there is a risk of high amonia and nitrate levels. And if I wait the Ich will get worse. Can Ich kill goldfish quickly? CAn I wait until my amonia and nitrate levels are stabilised before treating the Ich? Please help, I am confused Damo This post has been edited by Damo: Sat, 05 May 2007 2:09 pm |
