epsom salt question

[Panama Discus]

have had good luck with epsom salt in the past but did my first treatment last night and fish still bloated. i am going for the second treatment but today as a preventative measure used aquarium salt in the tank. can epsom salt be used in conjuction with aquarium salt???

thanks

Yes, I am pretty sure you can. It isnt like they are medications. They are just different minerals. you can use both no problem. What is the dosage you are using for the epsom salts?

Hi David, you can go as high as 2 tbsp/ 10 gals with epsom salts and it is ok to use with aquarium salt.
