    My fantail looked like he was on his way out yesterday so i though id try my beeta salt and give him a salt bath as i had nothing to loose. Left him in a pot of salted water for about 8 hours Now hes back in his tank swimming as if nothing happened. Its like a miracle cure! I definitely recommend if u have no idea whats wrong with yr fish.

    Based on experience, I think it's ideal to have filter in a betta tank (minimum 5 gallons) and 15 minutes is too long for an epsom salt bath. You should also have a recovery tank before placing them back to their tank to prevent shock.

      Truely, agreed with you..
      Epsom salt may not cause Osmotic shok.. It is Sodium Cloride to cause Osmotic shok.. High volume of water 5 gallons is a good practice👍

    Let me know pls if betta fish has dropsy this epsom salt could treat that condition and what other medications could help thanks.

      Dropsy is accumulation of water which results due to kidney failure. Bacterial infection results in kidney failure. Use Tetracycline (Antibiotic) @ 1 gm in 1 liter of water along with Epsom salt treatment for three days. Epson salt tratment alone cannot check dropsy condition. Both antibiotic tratment and Epsom salt tratment will cure Dropsy

      Warm water and filter water are NOT suitable. Take water from Aquarium of Betta Fish and add Epsom salt. After treatment, descard epsom salt water and add fresh water to Aquarium. 👍

      @deshpandesachin2901  Год назад

      Yes ..Epsom is Magnesium Sulfate (MgSO4). It contains " "magnesium" and " Sulpher" both are useful for Plants.
      "Magnesium" is useful for both Fish and livestock...Tq.

      Filter, heater and air stone for Betta Fish..?? Betta fish can take oxygen from both air & water. Heater has a secodary role in reducing Algae/ Bactiria count. Finally, the size of tank is small but above one liter is OK..

    I took betta 3days before its not eating food n not moving in my new tank .. I gave a salt bath today .. Does it having infection .. Is touching n cleaning of the aquarium in hand causes infection in human ? ??

    • @deshpandesachin2901
      @deshpandesachin2901  2 года назад +1

      No.. Cleaning and touching may not spread any disease to us.. But always use a mesh to handle fish.
      Coming to Betta fish.. Please give Epsom salt bath. If you are nearby any Veterinarinary Hospital.. you will get Epsom salt easily. It is safe to use. If you are nearby a Homeopathy stores.. get a medicine called " Carbo Veg 200 x" Use one drop daily for thgree days.

      Please give betta fish Niomycin (Antibiotic) or Tetracycline (Antibiotic) for 2 days. Separate Betta fish in other tank with same water and give Antibiotic. After half an hour shift it to original tank. Also change water by 30% every day for three days to reduce infection from water also. 👍
