Salt baths - how often?

[kjnorman]

This information must be on here somewhere, but I couldn't find it. Sorry if I missed it in the Salt Bath Tutorial.

No problems right now, but with summer warming up and lots of juveniles to care for I want to be prepared for fungus. If an axie gets fungus, how often can you give them salt baths? Is there a recommended amount or a maximum safe amount or anything?

Thanks!

Twice a day, for 10 minutes, with 1tbsp of salt per L of water.

The sticky on Fungus is also really good.

And be careful what sort of salt you use - do NOT use iodised salt. Just check the Salt Bath sticky in the Sick Axolotl section. Follow the instructions carefully.

Thanks Sweetie and Antiejude.
I have aquarium salt left over from my old guppy breeding hobby, will use that if needed.

Cheers!
