I hope you NEVER delete this video. I know that this is a treatment for guppies, but I decided to do this treatment for a betta fish that I have, and it seems to be working. As of 4-24-24 3rd day of treatment, it is working. On the 2nd day, I thought the betta was dead, but he was kicking and pushing through. I hope and believe this will work! Thank you!

salt is better because it causes an osmotic shock that destroys the cell membrane of the bacteria. 2 grams of sea salt for every 10 liters of water

Thank you so much for sharing this info! My guppy got cloudy pop eyes and was swimming wonky, I quarantine it and added some aquarium salt+antifungal med. The pop eyes got less swollen and the cloudiness was cleared on the next day. After 4 days of quarantine and fasting (plus water change daily), it has fully recovered and returned to it's original tank.

Glad I saw this video, my guppies have always had problems with dropsy, studied a little bit more about it and like I suspected fungal and bacterial infections as well as stress during transfer can then kill the fish if it is not treated. I understand now also that I have to be more diligent with water cleanliness. The tank parameters have been good, but not good enough so I will perform smaller water changes more often and try to clean out pockets of the substrate where detritus collects more often. I noticed that was one neglected area last time when I did my regular weekly water change. I have increased the bio load of my large aquarium tremendously so I will be even more tedious with water cleanliness. And it is easy to do and does not take much time to just remove some detritus and replace some water with RO water. It is such a menial task that does not take long. I understand that if I don't do that in a tank with a higher bio load it will run into problems. I want to do the best for my pets, aquariums bring so much peaceful enjoyment. When it comes to the small hospital tank with a male and female guppy I thought would not make it, they are better, starting to eat and are now much more active. They are not out of the woods yet, the female guppy is still thin from not eating for 5 days, but one person online suggested they actually do not feed the fish with dropsy for 5 days and then start feeding them slowly again so that was cool, the male guppy still is a little bloated in the belly area, but not really bad. Continuing with small water changes and salt treatment, pretty simple really. The ultimate reward would be if the guppy pair could get fry, because the colors of a yellow leopard male and yellow, orange colored female could produce gorgeous baby fish, keeping my fingers crossed.

I would do lots of research on columnaris in guppies. If that's the issue, salt by itself will probably not solve things.

Columnaris is very difficult to treat. I use my method only 50% chance of survival rate. But there is no wrong in trying so 🤷
@bl0pez772 Жыл бұрын
@@albertsguppyadventure4293 Without antibiotic therapy, the mortality rate is 100%. The other unfortunate thing is it is technically a "super bug" now. Based on scientific studies done on columnaris (flavobacterium columnare), it's resistant to multiple antibiotics. Kanamycin is effective, SMZ/TMP, and other sulfa antimicrobials. Of course, salt doesn't hurt as an adjunctive treatment to assist with gill function/slime coat stimulation/osmoregulation- and it may help the fish recover quicker.
@bl0pez772 Жыл бұрын
It can also be difficult to diagnose as well due to the different strains with varying symptoms. The more virulent strains can wipe out a tank overnight with no outward symptoms. Finding multiple fish/all fish dead the next morning could be from lots of different things, and there isn't a reliable way to differentiate the cause (without cytology/necropsy/diagnostics) if there are no symptoms of disease.

I do the same with my Betta. But I use 1/4 salt in 1 cup water. I put the sick Betta in the solution for 45 seconds. Then I take em out and put the betta in 1 gallon tank with 4 indian almond leaves. The water gets extremely dark but this helps the Betta recover quickly. The fins will dissolve because of the salt used before but it'll fully recover in about 3 weeks. I've had them live years after this treatment without ever getting sick again. Edit: I change the water and leaves in the 1 gallon tank every 3 days for 3 weeks. This worked for every sickness my Bettas had except for the sickness where 1 female swole up and her scales were raised.
