Fish_Dave_Ab Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 We just got a bunch of fish and are finding places to put them all. Currently the 40 gallon tank is a bit overloaded with tetras but we found ich and I am reluctant to move them until I am sure the disease is gone. We are currently treating the tank with raised temperature (to 82) and with salt There is one Rosy Barb which is clearly distressed. He/she is continually swimming the length of the tank, back and forth, back and forth Do I move her now or until I am sure the ich problem has been taken care of? It bothers me she is so stressed Your input please Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arixonbarnes Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Is it the only rosy barb you have? If so you should get several more as they are a schooling fish and one fish alone will not do too well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish_Dave_Ab Posted January 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Yes, she is the only one. After much thought I suspect she is stressed because there are no other barbs and it is possible she has ich Thank you very much for your input. It is much appreciated Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
