Wouldn’t a greater concentration of the epsom salt be better? It seems very diluted to me and the small amount soaked into the small pellets will make the salt essentially not meaningful?

hay man I have been keeping African cichlids for about 20+ years I always use Magnesium_ sulfate ( Epsom salt ) in all my tanks also Low-sodium (low salt) and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda ) and 1 or 2 drops of Iodine . I never buy any salts for my aquariums, good for the fish and keeps up the ph.

Im going to give this a try, ive got cichlid fry who are dieing and we cant figure out why. It started with one batch, and whatever it is, its spreading to others from other fish. We have tried a few things to no avail.

For me I believe its overfeeding or feeding the wrong food.

Good tip. iI fish isn't eating? My angel hasn't eaten in 10 days. I'm pretty sure it has hexamita. I should do this with my other angels for prophylactic purposes since this new fish came to me sick. I'm afraid I'll have to put it to sleep.

+tomcat13claws You can also add epsom salt to the water with some API general cure. That way they get the laxative effect to poop out the worms and the api general cure to hopefully kill it. That's what I did because I had one cichlid who wouldn't eat anything!!! she is now eating small amounts 72 hours into the treatment. (she would eat more but the big fish beat her to it!) :) Good luck! Hope no fishies died

Can you use bloodworms in place for pellets? My FH is slowly recovering from a horrible case of hex for a month now. His rectal prolapse is gone and he just starting eating yesterday but still poops white and will only eat bloodworms.

I have 17 tanks running right now, one of which is 620 Gallons. My source water is untrustworthy so it goes through a whole house filtration and softening system. Because of this, I have to remineralize it. I use magnesium sulfate and calcium chloride (after buffering with sodium bicarbonate) in all of my tanks, even the soft water tanks. It does not have a laxative effect at the rates I use for remineralizing. I also use it for treating constipation in my fancy goldfish, but at a much higher rate and in a separate tank. I have seen no ill-effects to my bio-filter, and I am an unrepentant over-stocked over-feeder lol.

My Tropheus have Silky String like poop. They had been doing okay and they were sharing a 90 gallon with Demasoni. I rehoused them and brought them back for about 1 week in the 90 gallon with Demasonis gone only 7 of them are there now. I decided to get 2 Duboisi and will introduce more but these 2 may have brought some sort of infection. The Duboisi look active but they don’t eat much. I believe 1 Tropheus is getting a fat belly it swims a bit weird. can I just take the one with bloat out and put it in a black container with epsom treated water over night? Hopefully it will crap and not be bloated.
