Keep in mind that fish have no idea what chemicals or medicine is in the wild and they just fight it off with their very powerful immune system. Stress is the main factor as to limiting its power. So best thing to do is either isolate it in a cycled quarantine tank with daily or every other daily water change of 25%.</P><P>What is your pH, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, etc in <U>numbers</U>?</P><P>Did anything change before the first severum got the infection?
