Japanese Ranchu came to Malaysia in EGG form

[ho0406]

Hi Lam,
Thanks again for clarified my doubt on the chlorine clearing and temp. shock matters. I really enjoyed reading it. Do hope it was not taking too much of your time.

Read from the forum that whenever goldfish is acting strange or looking ill, the precautious step is to quarantine the fish in 0.5% salinity water. So do the new purchased goldfishes. During my visit, Vincent did stress to me the importance of salt to Japanese ranchu. The salt is a must for all ranchu hobbyists, he added. All members there have a big bag (I think is 20KG) of salt at home.

How the salt act as ‘medicine’ in the above mentioned situations? How to perform correct quarantine? Correct salinity? Any food allowed? Change water daily? For how long? The uses of salt other than used for quarantine? And any other points that we should not miss.

Thanks a lot and sorry for asking so much questions in a day.

Hi chinaryukin,

Ya, i agreed with you. Healthy fish looks prettier,too. Can show your ranchus? Miss them much la.

Not green carpet yet. Hard to get cos placed indoor. May need aquarium light. Currently using Masu, used for a week already.

You too keep up the good work. Thanks.

Guys,

Cos due to exhibition and heavy work load in office, my reply will be a little slow. So, I still owe you guys some feedback.

In general, get the green water or carpet algea process started. Sunlight is the most important thing but can replace by lighting. We need to work one the head very soon cos i notice you guys got some good body already.

till then, be back in action very soon! Thanks.

PS I'll do the salt explaination in detail next.
