So have been running hyposalinity now for over a week and have had no ammonia spikes and all fish seem healthy. Eyes have cleared and Starry Blenny is no longer flashing. Can I ask you @Jay Hemdal about the final spots which are remaining on my Radiata Lionfishes fin please? Are these marks where the parasite has been feeding and will take a little longer to heal, or parasites which are not impacted by the hyposalinity thus far? How long would you expect these to hang around for?


The white spots I see there are part of the normal fin coloration for that species.

Jay

Thanks Jay, it did seem rather odd as all other spots have dissappeared after only a fewer days of hyposalinity on all fish.
