Advice:
Dechlorinate any water fish will be in ....even temporarily. CYCLE CYCLE CYCLE first!!! It will prevent that milky white haze from appearing. When changing substrate , gather old substrate in a mesh basket and leave in tank for a week so all the beneficial bacteria can completely transfer--you wanna keep out the haze don't you?! Salt sprinkled on goldfish cures white mold on their backs if happens to you. Air pumps aren't necessary if you have a waterfall....splashing provides all the ogygen necessary.

Every passionate aquarist eventually faces a moment of crisis when a prized fish exhibits symptoms of illness, whether it is a stubborn case of Ich, frayed fins, or unexplained lethargy.
Few experiences in the aquarium hobby are as heart-stopping as looking into your tank during feeding time, counting fins, and realizing one of your favorite fish is missing, only to discover it squeezed into a perilous gap behind the filter or wedge-pinned behind a heavy resin castle.
For decades, freshwater aquarium salt has been hailed as a staple remedy in the fishkeeping community, often passed down from experienced hobbyists as a universal cure-all for sick, stressed, or newly acquired fish.
