Dropsy Strike back

[weetat]

Hi all ,

I have 3 goldfish in 29 gallons tank .
In Past , i have one goldfish had dropsy but it have cured after i
added anti-bacteria solution in to the tank.
However , yesterday the same gold fish was struck by the dropsy again .
Any ideas how to completely cure the dropsy ?
I have going to change 50% water in the tank today .

Thanks

get the dropsy back down with treatment and then dont lower the temp of that tank.
leave it around 80oF. you must lower the temp slowly ... like 1o F per day.

Ingrid...
Just a follow up.
I have been feeding my ornamental vail tail the antibiotic feed...it will be
coming up to two weeks.
Its now improved 100 % ...my question is....
How long should I keep it in my hospital tank at 80 deg F and when should I
consider introducing it back to my main tank ?

at least a month at increased temp and antibiotic food. then lower the temp only 1oF
per day. seems slowly lowering it really helps. if the scales go back up consider
increasing the temp of the main tank to 80oF. Ingrid
