Hey,
well my rasboras have settled into the tank now, but this morning i noticed a mouth fungus on 2 of the fish. So i read around a few web sites and have given them both a salt dip (with aquarium salt)
anyway i mixed up 2 Litres of water at 30g of salt per litre and dipped each fish in for 60 seconds, the fungus now seems to have dissapeared and the fish are back to their usual self.
i have also mixed in 4tsp of aquarium salt into my tank.
have i taken the right course of action, i dont really fancy using meds as i dont have a hospital tank or the means to set one up yet.
thanks for your help, Paul
EDIT: i have also done a 40% water change. 0 Ammonia, 0 Nitrite, Trace Nitrate
