Reply With QuoteSheng, could you give out more information of your setup? We wouldn't want to tell you to get a certain product only to find out later that the rise in temperature could kill off other livestock such as shrimps and plants.

If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
Don't walk behind me as I might not lead, don't walk in front of me as I might not follow. Walk beside me, as my friend.
Mohamad Rohaizal is my name. If it's too hard, use BFG. I don't mind.
I think you can take out your fishes and treat them in a smaller tank. Easier to maintain the temperature and less risk.

I went into the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life... to put to rout all that was not life; and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

The problem is my whole tank of cichlids (8 EarthEaters, 2 albino bristlenoses,4 Laetacara Fulvipinnis, 4 Acara, 4 Hypsophrys nicaraguensis,some tretas etc... ) are down with white spot. Too many fishes to remove and i dont have spare tank big enough to hold them.
Anyway, last night, i have bought a Rena 300W heater from C328 for my tank & adding some salt.
I have lost almost 2 batch of my EE's fries due to this incident.
Hopefully, the rest of the fishes will recover soon.

rena should be reliable enough.
i think putting some methylene blue in addition to the increased temperature will be more effective.
hope your fishes recover fast.
maybe u can get the waterlife protozin for LFS. but please check with LFS if you have heavy planted and sensitive shrimp
