Generally speaking you can follow these guidelines: - set up quarantine tank: make sure the tank is well oxygenation and has some plants for hiding; - add 1 teaspoon of aquarium salt per gallon; unfortunately it is very difficult to replicate the composition of aquarium salt back home so I would strongly suggest to buy a specific product. - add this product https://www.liveaquaria.com/product/4410/?pcatid=4410 as indicated; - leave your fish there and feed him regularly for 3-4 days until you don't see any improvement - If no results at all are seen after 4 days a check up would be needed as more specific tests may be needed to establish a specific diagnosis. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further. Please find the time to give us a feedback about the consultation as that will be used to improve our service.

Hi there! Thanks for using Boop by Petco! This is the same question I asked myself a few years ago when I started with my first saltwater aquarium. It really depends on a lot of factors. Consider that it requires a significant amount of time and money commitment if you want to do it the right way. It is really time consuming though extremely rewarding. Water quality and equilibrium of the tank are key and ensuring both requires using the right equipment and constantly testing the water and adjusting things as needed. I would consider reading a lot about it before commiting any money to it. I personally love it but it really is a second job I have every Saturday morning just to take care of my tank. Good luck!

As a short term bath of up to seven days and a concentration of up to 1 tablespoon/ 1gal water can be used but this is just the fish as a treatment. You cannot add it to the daily aquarium as it will damage the plants and can damage the fish. Remember these are freshwater fish, not salt water.

Maintain pristine water quality. This is the foundation of treatment. It will require partial water changes every few days and a complete cleaning of the substrate (if any) and any tank furniture. I see you have frogs, which can make treatment trickier. In tanks without amphibians or scaleless fish, plain aquarium salt (NOT table or Epsom salt) can be used at 1 tablespoon per 5 gallons of water for 14 days. You can remove the frog(s) and treat them separately if you want to use salt. The Pimafix, or Melafix also, can be used in conjunction with salt.
