Haveing had a problem in my tank with fin rot which im sure was due to three days of a very cold wind blowing through northan thialand. The fin rot caught 2 of my breeding pairs and a far few adult fish in my pairing tank. Which money wise had about 1000s worth of fish about 35000 baht
So what did i do just the same as any thai farm would do i added Formaldehyde in a small dose but even though i though i was sure ide got the ballance right it was to much so the fish that were in the tank that did not yet have fin rot sufferd aswell the end result was i lost the week fish with the fin rot as well as some good fish as well
You might say well why the hell would you use something like formaldhyde but thai breeder live by it they add it to every tank that they get eggs in and i find it world so much better for this job that the methane blues used in europe.
Here they add 2 products to the water after a lay a yellow power and formaldhyde and the egg loss rate very low. And for cost its 2 dollors us a big bottle
