Is there ANY fish disease that make your fish look like they need a bath BADLY?

Is there a lot of suspended material in the water?

(Like little minute particles floating around)

andy65

yes.

Chief_waterchanger

It is probably that suspended material getting caught in their slime coat. Extra water changes and maybe some filter floss in an over the side filter would clear that right up, but its nothing serious unless it starts to affect the way the fish swims or something of that nature.

andy65

thanks so much. Now I feel SO MUCH BETTER.

Here I thought that they had some sort of weird disease that has never been seen.

Chief_waterchanger

You're welcome. This was information I ran by Dino and we answered together, so it wasn't just me.

andy65

ok now,would the Polyfil that you can buy for fill a stuffed toy with work for filter floss?

I think Polyfill is just poly fibers. We use it to filter our small pool.

Chief_waterchanger

Yes, it is useable, as long as it is 100% just polyfill, nothing else added to it, AND is unscented.

We use that here.

andy65

I have NEVER seen scented Polyfill. I would buy it for my next sewing project. MMMMM minty fresh.

Thanks

Can you imagine scented pillows? That'd be amazing!
