Any Additives Needed In The Water?

[aaronnorth]

Does anybody add anything into theor water to help with any cuts on their fishes?

I know they are aggressive and now i have noticed that 1 has ripped his lip, there are a few nipped fins and 1 fish has lost a scale. This is all in their natural behaviour i presume so is there anything i can add so they don become infected, or anything that helps them heal quicker?

I dont just want you to list any product that claims this, i would like to hear your reviews on any that you use (or if i am going to be wasting my money)

Thank you, Aaron

I don't know of any specific brands but I do know there is something that sort of coats the fish so they can heal.

This is something that would get better info maybe from the emergencies forum. A few people have posted different things about this kind of stuff over there.

I know mines a little big too, but yours is over the top long. It sucks to have to scroll past so much. No I'm not athiest, I'm a christian, and while it's good to proclaim it's good to follow rules and standards where you're doing it.

Thanks, i have seen API stress coat and wondered if anybody had tried that.

The mods are doing a clean up in a few days to crack down on them again.

I use API Stress Coat+ water conditioner as a dechlorinator during water changes & any small wounds on my fish seem to clear up very quickly.

 

[aaronnorth]

i thought the stress coat was a dechlorinator aswell as a stress coat.

Yes sorry, I meant. STRESS COAT+
