Hi Toby, I need your precious help to solve a great problem. I'm making hyposalinity in my tank (250 gallons) for fighting cryptocarion. A week ago I've brought my salinity to 13 ppt and now my fishes are free of white spots. But two of them (medium clown triggers) have their belly vevy very swollen. I've bought one of these two clowns saturday and after a eight hours acclimatation I've put him in my tank. Yesterday he had his belly swollen like the other clown who is in the tank from the beginning of hyposalinity. Another clown trigger is died 3 days ago this is body swollen.
All other fishes are ok. Now I have put the two swollen triggers in another tank with 35 ppt of salinity to save their lives.
Is possible the reason of this is to much salinity because of wrong calibration of my refractometer. What can I do to save them?
Please help!
Thank you very much
Lorenzo
