    Many many thanks to you Dr. Loh. I did both baths today. The epsom as a laxative for a male koi betta that seemed bloated with either constipation or other digestive issue. And I did the salt bath several hours later for him and a female double tail as a preventative. The male koi had some scale damage when I bought him but the pet store did not truthfully disclose or perhaps did not know. Either way they are both fine and he seems much better now. Thank you Dr.!

    I had a great idea for a educational video. A video about aquatic disease and how to counter them. I know what your thinking, there’s a bunch o theses videos on TH-cam. But there isn’t any good ones that go into detail with pictures of different bacterial infections, how to identify them and which meds work for each different infection . And the same for parasites in our aquarium. With pictures of different parasites and ways to combat them. I believe that this would be a good video and or talk to present. There are far to many aquarists out there losing pets simply because they don’t know how to identify the difference between parasitic and bacterial infections and have no clue what to do with either problem. Heck you could make a 3 or more part series out of it. Bacterial, Parasitic, and Viral infections. Just an idea and I thought you would be a awesome person to make it ✌️

I was thinking of starting a website like that. I am a web designer so it would be easy for me to create. The only thing is it will be time consuming to manage it.

    My oranda has got white scattered spots on the fins/tail with a couple of visible red streaks (like veins/capillaries). I have had him for about a month. It is eating and swimming well. Today I tried the tonic salt (60g/3L) for 5mins in a separate container and transferred the fish back to the home/community tank immediately after 5mins.

  • @FishEZ
    @FishEZ 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I appreciated the explanation and have always wondered on when and how much to use. I will have to re-calculate for amount per gallon but I can figure that out. The problem that I see with using Salt Baths is that the stress of trying to catch the fish and put them into the bath and then returning them to the aquarium can likely be much more stressful for the fish than for the benefits of the salt bath itself. Most of the time, the fish don't wish to be caught and with the type of fish that I have, they would rather jump out of the tank long before jumping into a net. However, I am thinking that if the fish were first put into a quarantine tank, perhaps that would make it all easier. Again, however, that's added stress. Thanks for the explanation too of the types of salts NOT to use. That's good to know. I am subscribed and look forward to the next video presentation. -- Michael

      @yourstruly2983 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      If it reassures you, we've been using the two basic sea salt baths as described here for probably close to two years now, and it's made a helpful difference far more often than not. It's simple, affordable, safe and effective for so many different aquarium organisms; we've successfully treated freshwater crayfish, freshwater shrimp, gudgeons and guppies multiple times. On the very few occasions that the animal didn't recover, we generally weren't really expecting them to make it through anyway, but it was still good to be able to at least ease their passings.
      We always check the salt-tolerance of the animal before we use a salt bath, and are very careful about accurately measuring the salt, water, and times. We also check water parameters and look over the tank and the animal itself to try and work out what's causing any problems that may be needing treatment.
      Hope this is helpful for you :)

    • @yourstruly2983
      @yourstruly2983 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@joemail1527 Hi, hope I can help. My understanding is that 'rock' salt (salt mined from dry land rock) is more likely to contain undesirable mineral traces than 'sea' salt (salt harvested from the sea by letting water evaporate so the salt is left behind dry). These are both kinds of salt you can find in everyday grocery stores, along with 'table' salt (which usually contains a small amount of an additional substance to help keep each grain separate & prevent the salt from clumping together into a solid block). These 3 salts are all mostly made up of the same basic substance (Sodium chloride) and they're all the sort of salt that we humans eat.
      Are you familiar with pink Himalayan rock salt, or maybe salt lamps? That's a kind of rock salt that contains tiny amounts of trace minerals which cause its distinctive pink colouration. It's a naturally occurring pigmentation of the salt which exists as literal rocks in the ground, and is an interesting example of a visible trace element in a rock salt.
      I can't recall whether or not this video was the source of my information, but somewhere along the way I read that table salt with an added anti-caking agent, or rock salt with trace minerals from the ground aren't ideal for freshwater aquariums fish.
      I really hope this helps, I feel like I might not be explaining things well enough.

    When doing your videos can you please provide the dosage per gallons as well? Thank you and I love your videos.

      That's an easy calculation
      1 gallon = 3.785 liters
      So just by multiply the amount of grams per liter by 3.785, you're getting the amount required per gallon

    Are you saying 30 grams per liter for epsom salt bath? Isn't that alot higher than normally recommended? Thats about 6.5 tbsp per gallon. The most I've seen anywhere else is 1 tbsp per gallon.

    Hi doctor, i'm really appreciate about what you share with us in these videos. Is it possible to make a video about treating swim bladder disorder and can you give me a valid reference about what disease are common in human and fishes that likely we could get from our sick fishes? Thanks in advanced.

    Hello Doctor, can I use salt in my FlowerHorn tank even if there is no disease for the FH. I mean using salt as a precaution to prevent diseases ? Please advise
