i dont even have aquarium salt ? is it special type of salt

 

[Barry Tetra]

it special type of salt

do you have table salt?

 

[same2cool]

do you have table salt?

yes you mean. food salt

 

[Essjay]

Yes, food salt. But read the ingredients because most food salt contains anti caking agents and some contains iodate. If yours does not have these, it is safe to use, but if it does have them don't use it.Fish shops usually sell 'aquarium salt' which is the same but without the extra ingredients.

Try lots of extra water changes first as the damage could heal naturally. If it doesn't work, use salt at the rate of 1 tablespoonful for every 5 gallons (or 1 x 15 ml spoonful for every 20 litres). Dissolve the salt in some tank water in a separate tube, then when it is all dissolved pour it into the tank.




Just to add - assuming this is a Pangasionodon hypophthamaus, you are aware of how big they get? https://www.seriouslyfish.com/species/pangasionodon-hypophthalmus/

i have salf of Iodine and my fish tank takes about 45 gallon

 

[Essjay]

If it has iodine in it, it cannot be used for fish.

Do any fish shops where you live sell salt for using in fish tanks?


I'm afraid the fish cannot live in 45 gallons for very long - when grown they need tanks the size of swimming pools.

go to a swimming pool shop or hardware store and buy and bag of swimming pool salt.

your tank is not big enough for the white sharks or most of the other fishes you have.
