After I came back home from university, I had saw that two scales of my fish were strengh. Both of scale were cover by little white dot.

Firstly, I check water condition ( ph , nitrite , nitrate , temperature ). And I had found that, the temperature was so low.

The cause maby come from raining in the afternoon and the plug of heater was not tight. So, the heater was not working. :031:

I start to cure him by control the temperature at 31.0 and putting salt into the tank with 0.3% for 3 days. But the fungus disease was not stop and also expand to another scale.

So, I call to ask the Doctor for medicine and he told me to use " Formadine " with 0.3% for 1 week.


This is the pic of scale after curing. It's so bad , the fungus was bite my fish scale.;(
