AMMONIA POISONING IN GOLDFISH (how to treat and prevent)

  • Ammonia/nitrite poisoning is a common problem you can deal with with when you first get a fish into a new system. Also I forgot to show this on camera but I also added 4x dosage safe into the tank after the water change. This helps temporarily detoxify the ammonia and nitrite while the filters get back on their job of cycling. Hope this helps anyone else that may come across this problem.

      Do you ever still think about releasing their original dirty water in the tank along with them? I wonder if the waste from in their original water could have helped with cycling your sponge filters more.

      Hey Luke! I’m going to get goldfish soon! And I’m going to get 2. But I don’t want breeding to happen. So do you recommend getting 2 females or 2 males? Or does the gender nit matter much if they’re the same? Just wondering if one was easier or less aggressive!

    Even though I don't have goldfish, this is super helpful if I want to get another axolotl! May I suggest the name Tamago for the chubby-chinned goldfish? It means egg in Japanese.

    • @EmEm78
      @EmEm78 Год назад +5

      I vote for Tamago too, it's perfect for the round eggy girl.
      Just FYI, if you do get an axolotl, as amphibians their needs are very different to fish. Although I've used salt baths (under the direction of our exotics vet), they're done at specific dilutions and for less time. Same with methylene blue. Axies tend to be a lot more sensitive to things :) I hope you're able to own axolotls again in the future, they're such cool pets!

    When I had to move my goldfish out of my outdoor pond to do some work, I had a beneficial bacteria die-off. I didn't put the filter in with my holding tank (stupid). When I noticed there was something wrong with the fish the next day, I did a full water test. 8ppm of ammonia! Actually, it couldn't have been darker green at the bottom of that scale. I turned over the water 2 -3 times with water changes, and it was still registering, so I added some ammo lock.
    This methylene blue salt bath would have been a great method for the fish really acting stressed. I have no idea how I didn't lose any fish! 5 giant fantails, 3 - 8" goldfish, 100 swordtails, 50 platies, and about 10 mollies. 0 deaths! My god, man, how!?
    I saved/created the new cycle by adding a giant bag of bio rings that had been sitting in the waterfall overflow and adding API quick start. I also added media and mulm from my indoor tanks.

    I recently got a flowerhorn fish, and he's been really stressed and lethargic and won't eat anything, no matter what I do. I think the nitrite and ammonia are too high, so I've been doing 10-20% water changes every day, but I'm worried it's not enough because he hasn't been responsive much these past few days. Should I also do the salt bath method?
