Doc doc what can I do?

Buy some more Whitespot cure and increase the temperature to speed up the lifecycle.

Salt.. Use rock salt works just as well as white spot cure and its cheap just goto the supermarket and stock up I think the dosage is 1TBs per 4L but a fish like a midas shouldn't be too bothered with salt so you should be fine.

last time my baby Midas die out on me Ryanjury..

i dont know why but only Midas and flowerhorn is the only one in the tank that caught the white spot.?

last time in my 6ft the same thing happen, midas die of white spot and golden severum and jag show no effect of white spot.?

Some fish are more susceptible to certain issues like clown loaches and white spot..

Bump up the temp and chuck some salt and it should clear it up.

I would use 'rock' salt as well, table salt will work just as well but the anticaking agent will cloud the water. dosage 3g per litre of water.

I have whitespot in my coldwater natives, gee it takes a long time to run it's life-cycle at 14deg...

anticaking agent! :smln:

that its iam heading out to animate at lunch time to get me some more white spot cure and the rest of so call" treatment!

thank you all"

Pams table salt uses 551:

(Anticaking agent E551) Silicon dioxide, amorphous

ie not harmful to your tank.

Rock salt will not have that in as it doent need it.

I would but salt from the supermarket much cheaper than the LFS

hi Jack
