help i have just noticed that my newly aquired regal has taken a turn for the worse he is very docile and lathargic he has no signs of any marks or whitespot infact he looks normal i have taken him out of the tank and given him a freshwater bath. having tested the water the readings are all very good.
no nitrite no nitrate no ammonia ph is 8.3 kh is showing normal he was feeding last time i saw him was last night |

I agree with craig i hope the bath has not done to much damage but i suspect it will
I have a regal and this one hides a lot between the rocks i use seaweed to keep the spots at bay (it works) i have never used any medication just seaweed on tap |
