i havnt started yet they are the same as my display but the temp was low i have it heating up now and he got up nd started swimming again but he has salt grains it looks like on his fins face mouth body and his eyes clowdy. his fins look like they have been nipped off but nothing nipps him maroon chased him away from his terr once or twice. but his gills look like they are red and he cant close his mouth and hes loosing color thats all the symptoms. and when i bought him i didnt notice it till i got home and even then i didnt even see white it looked like orange same as his side color right above his eye but he has ick worst in that place. will copper be a fast way to cure i dont have a test for it yet either. i want to do hypo but i dont think i have time to. i dont have a refracto only a plastic arm hypo i can order a refracto today but wont be here till 2 or 3 days
