QT:what rate to drop salinity

[unsalted]

How fast do you lower salinity? Howmuch per day week, and then once I reach 1.009 is that when the trhhe weeks begin before I put them back in the tank, or is it 3 weeks after I last notice ICH on the fish?

Over the course of 48 hrs lower salinity in many small ingrements. How much depends on the volume of water in your QT. Assess fish stress and adjust your rate of water change-outs accordingly.

I prefer 3 wks after no signs of ich.
