A video of my goldfish. The 90 gallon goes up next week.
We are going through a battle with ich, and winning the fight with salt and heat.

Thanks everyone!!:hug8::hug8:
Marie, I am talking with the folks at Koko's right now. It appears my treatment is a tad weak, so I am going to up it today. They are doing much better, with no visible ich right now. We are not totally out of the woods yet though.

Even with your treatment being weak you sure improved the situation. Hopefully now you'll kick some ich butt.

Thanks Marie!:hug8:
A couple mistakes were made that may have stressed them. Especially taking out all the decoration/plants. As soon as I replaced them, the fish started acting normal. I just did my water change, and brought the salt amount up. I am told to leave the salt as is for 10 days after any visible signs of ich. If you would have seen Matsui a couple days ago, you would have thought he was a goner.

Thank you Kathie & Victoria!
Wait until you see what I have planned for the 90 gallon they are soon to move into.:laughing12: I am hoping it's going to be my best work yet.:)
I have been on the planted tank forum looking for what is sometimes called 'moonstones'. Not the gem, these are round to egg shaped smooth stones from a river, that are medium to large. A member told me about a gentleman named Rod, who owns a place called thedriftwoodstore.com .
Rod called me last night. What a fascinating person, who has had a very interesting life. He is going to get the stones for me, and at a great price.:dance4:

Thank you Marie & Jill. It's raining and lightning today. What a sad & dark day for me.:(
I am coming off my hormone pills too, just quit three days ago. This is not helping.
