Grab a tape measure and measure the length, width, and height of the tank and compare it to here: http/www.repticzone.com/articles/tanksizes.html or here: http/www.thekrib.com/TankHardware/size-chart.html. Then you start out adding 1 heaping tablespoon per 10 gallons of water. They can take twice that dosage easily without adverse side effects. Plecos and loaches are a different story, but no the topic here. 1 tbsp per every 5 gallon doesn't even raise the sg to brackish level. It only raises the sg to like 1.002 at most and brackish is 1.005-1.009 I think. CFC will know fer sure, but that ain't the topic here neither. If that's more then a 10 gallon tank, I would guess at a 20 long or a 33 long, then U gotta add more salt before U see her improving. I've personally witnessed salt taking care of body fungus, ick and finrot all at the same time. Brought my oscar back from near death. I'll swear by aquarium salt and use it whenever able.
