Help Me Please

Ok thanks for the information guys. And no i typed it all way too fast! Its pretty good stuff though. All my fish are currently under 2 inches long. Except for clown loach at just over 2 and parrot fish about 5 inches long. Now i know exactly what to do! As my fish only have about 6 to 8 spots max. I think i should be able to beat the disease. Just got a bit confused and didnt think i could use the treatment properly without killing bacteria. Thanks guys.

I have just been reading this post and would like to ask what colour the cloudy water is......

If the cloudiness is green you have an algae bloom and need to get a treatment to kill the algae as water changes will only feed the algae allowing it to persist.

If the cloudiness is white you are over changing the water.......I have seen this in my own tanks and when I reduce the amount of water I change it clears up by it's self. Here in the UK, the tap water is treated for drinking that can effect the good bacteria levels needed to keep the water good.

I would reduce your water changes and just treat the whole tank for white spot.

Hi thankyou for your advice but i dont think its due to overchanging the water. Also having said that i did two big water changes and my tank has greatly improved treatmejt is underway.
