How much should be the volume ( litres of water ) of the tank capacity for 2 grams of potassium permanganate stock solution.... treatment? And this treatment procedure should be done how many times ( 2 or 3 ) in a month?

If I turn off my canister filter, does it mean that when I turn it back on after treatment, I'll reintroduce gill flukes to the fish tank?

Hi Vincent, would you recommend taking out your marine block and spongefilter when you carry out this treatment?
@OZDiscus2 жыл бұрын
Yes. It is recommended to remove marine pure block and sponge filter. We didnt do so during demonstration but excellent observation. It will impact beneficial bacteria.

What frequency do you do the PP treatment? Once a month?
@OZDiscus7 ай бұрын
As you see your fish not performing but once a month is good frequency

Is it okay if I take the fish out and put it inside a pail to do this treatment with air pump running and once the pp has oxidise I put the fish back into the main tank. I’m running a sump tank so wondering if this method works ?

need help i have 2 adult discus that eat well but i realise they are getting thinner day by day. I check thier poop and they are pure black not white. Does this pp bath might help? i have an aquarium full of plant and some snails will this pp good for my tank? or should i do pp bath in quarantine tank?
@OZDiscus10 ай бұрын
Best to do this in a QT. PP oxidises and can cause staining on your plants. Snails will not tolerate this well.

Sir ,we directly mix potassium permanganate in fish tank?
@kelvinchang76556 ай бұрын
no you add the PP to a bottle then you slowly add the PP to the tank until you achieve the desired colour. Then leave it until the tank turns brown. Once it turns brown, the PP is no longer active and you can use H2O2 or change substantial amount of water.

You mean it burnt your fish fins? Then you have put too strong or too much PP to the tank. Also you need to keep the tank aerated.

How often do you have to do this procedure?
@OZDiscus Жыл бұрын
There isnt a regular procedure. You can do this when you see issues with Fluke or External related parasite. If you do too often, fish will become immune also. Hence, I would limit this to when you see signs of fluke, scratching or when introducing new fish to the tank.

Is it too dangerous to use if there are tetras in the same tank?
@OZDiscus2 жыл бұрын
Depends on the types of tetras. Larger tetras like Congo tetras have better tolerance compared to neon tetras. Key is oxygenating the tank. We recommend to do a test with some tetras in a bucket. If problem, can use Seachem prime or hydrogen peroxide to neutralise it quickly.

@OZDiscus2 жыл бұрын
It is appropriate to treat this every 4 weeks if you are introducing new plants or fish. However, its best not too regular as fish and fluke can become immune if too often. Try to space it out or as issues arise from Gill flukes etc
