    Blue Dolphin (Hap). Salt Bath?

    Good news......all flicking behaviour has ceased since the second day after the salt bath    so not planing and further medication at this time. I think the fish was just purging its self after the salt bath of any dead infestations.   Fingers cross as it's a stunning example and well worth...

    Malawi Blue Dolphin Acting Up

    The stuff I WAS going to use is Aqualibrium by Interpet.  I hear what you say about the nitrates/salt water but cannot find any mention of it on the box nor on internet which is puzzling?   To catch any fish in my set up involves the removal of all rock and, not being very good at catching, a...

    Malawi Blue Dolphin Acting Up

    Further to info above I have read that adding salt kills 99 % of parasites (external) and is tons better than any medications so this would sound a good next move? I guess it would be an ok move to add aquarium salt to a Tanganyikan set-upP

    Thank you Mark for your comments and offers    I take on board about the white spots not being present however my research suggests that it still likely to be Ich.

    Malawi Blue Dolphin Acting Up

    Hi, I'm treating for Ich because after asking for suggestions on here several times without a single reply (despite colossal amount of views) all the research I found available on Google pointed to this course of action.

    My Tanganyika Fry Tank, Vid-Clip.

    I set this fry tank up by using a 30lt Nano tank which incorporates a massive amount of filter media for the size of the tank. Each time I do a water change I discover loads of mixed fry which mostly get eaten so I decided to keep and grow a few on. I did expect nature to weed out the weak but...

    Blue Dolphin (Hap) Problem

    Blue Dolphin (Hap) Problem

    My 4"-5" Blue Dolphin is spending a lot of time diving sideways into the substrate, against rocks and even the 3D background. It's been doing it for a few weeks now but now seems to be doing it more and more.   It shows no outwardly signs of anything untoward and feeds well. The water (as it has...
