look at ich here. you MUST be using 0.3% salt or the fish would be dead.
it can be used for ich. there are other treatments, like quick cure.
red CAN be caused by ich, but also stress from bad water.
polyaqua is a good soothing conditioner for gills.
clean water, clean water, ...... and feed VERY small amounts of food at a time.

Thanks Ingrid Yes .03 % One table spoon per gallon. There
getting 100% water change each day while in quarantine. I'm thinking
quick cure might be the way to go - all this water changing is making
me really tired. Those 5 gallon buckets are heavy!
