Velvet disease!!!!

Post by clint8 »

Hi guys,

I was was wondering what other type of treatment should i use to counter the velvet disease??? Looks like its affecting most of my loricarids!!!
So far i have used, normal salt and Protozin by Waterlife but doesn't look good. I have also raised the temperature to about 30 degrees C. My tank holds about 450 liters of water and i run an undergravel filter with a powerhead as well as an external cannister filter. pH reading is around 6.5, NH3 - 0, No2 - 0.

Please help....

Cheers,
Clint
