Salt For Sick Fish...

[Sloory]

G'day,

I've never used salt for sick tropicals, how much do you put in per liter if your fish is i'll?

My sick ram has died now but if it happens again i want to give it a go as i've heard it can help.

hmm thats a hard one. i got told to use salt for my sick betta. i was told to use around a 'pinch' for my tank which is 3 litres.....not really helpful i know! so if anyone else has suggestions for sloory or myself that'd be great!

G'day sloory

I've used salt in the past in my tropical tank, but it was quite a while ago. :rolleyes:

Here is a link that provides some info on the subject.

salt is pretty good for external parasites.
I generally add about 50g/50 litres.

BUT DO NOT ADD SALT WITH CATFISH
