Raising Specific gravity

[chull13]

can I raise the specific gravity of my fish in hypo of 1.009 to 1.024 over the course of 36 hrs? I am leaving to go on vacation on Saturday afternoon and my fish seem to be getting a little stressed out in hypo right now. They have been in for a little over 3 weeks so I think that is ample time to be ick free. Please offer opinions ASAP!!!!!!!!!

I would do it more like over a 72 hour period at the least. Best if done over like a week

IMO, I think its too risky raising SG more that .003 at the most in 24 hrs. maybe raise it what you can befor leaveing and raise the rest when you get back....hate to think you went thru all the trouble to help them and not turn out good at the end for you....and them.
