CR,

If things are not improving. I recommend to opt for medication + salt. A very useful formula. Do you know where to get those Elubashyu? (Eh-Loo-Bah-Shiu) and widely known as Japanese Yellow podwer. comes in 5gram per pack and only cost you a few bucks each packet.

Formula:

- Water Change Everyday.
- 2.5 gram of Elubashyu per 100L of water
- 0.6% salinity (0.6% salt)
- Stop feeding completely.
- Treatment up to 7 -10 days even if you see their breathing back to normal
- back to 0.5% salinity water after treatment for a week.
- When you re-start your feeding. start from very little food and slowly increase day by day and back to normal diet on the 10th day. (about 2-3 times of water change)

Hope this will improve things.

Cheers.
