ha ITs can do anything. but unfortunately, it takes time to read and i'm good to go. the post was made before enough research and actually trying.
I deal with a lot of "common" people out there and make me utterly disrespect human intelligence. maybe 10% of all the people i have come in...
unfortunately. i read throughout so many websites. i can only remember what was said not the sites that said it. i know you should go higher than 80 but it is not recommended due to the fact the amount of stress you will add to your fish. if they are in enough stress from ich it will just add on...
after many readings:
temp for all 80degrees
