Could it be that she just likes 'sitting' in the middle of the tank?
Am I worrying for nothing? :-)

=========================
If she looks healthy, eats etc,... this may be so. Since she has no
symptoms there is nothing to treat.

Koi-Lo

I would add salt, it seems your obsessed with having to add salt to
freshwater fish. Have you ever considered setting up a marine tank, it
uses lots of salt.

Don't recall mentioning adding salt. Just looking out for the
wealthfare of my fish. Isn't that what this site is about???? Also
thought this was a place for newbie's to ask advice from more
experienced people. Will now go to other sites with more patient
people. Koi-Lo thanks for all your help.

Funnily enough Roy you were the person who first recommend using salt
in a freshwater tank to me.

If you like to throw money away and tanke your chances go with the
snake oils mela and pima fix. Of course they can be used together,
what do you think the manufacturer is stupid,...they make double the
moiney off yu buying useless snakeoils. Odds are water changes will be
sufficient, and now would be a better chance to use some salt than
snake oils....


Had never even contemplated salt before this. Did appreciate your
advice than and will give credit to you for the extreme difference that
it made to my problem. Like I said I'm a newbie to all this and
mistakenly thought this was a place where i could find helpful and good
advice. Didn't realise that critisism and sarcasm would be involved too.

rec.ponds and this list has been beset by very nasty angry trolls. this is in
addition to a few people who find it impossible to be reasonable. most everyone has
abandoned this and rec.ponds newsgroup for email lists where the trolls and nuts are
kept off. I run one mostly goldfish, but also koi and pond list using google.

there you can get very helpful friendly advice. Ingrid

==================
Mellie, please ask your questions on rec.aquaria.freshwater.misc as we have
knowledgeable people there to answer you questions. This NG is very slow
with few people responding to questions.

If someone is rude or uses profanity you can just bypass their messages when
you see their name.

Koi-Lo.....
