higher Temp in tank

platyaja · April 3rd, 2008

Will Neon and Platy tolerate higher temp than 82 for a week or more? Will hi temp also help kill any other bacteria beside Ich?
many thanks

I can not comment on the Neon or Platy, ich is Parasitic not a bacteria, Bacteria will grow in numbers in higher temps, so only raise the temp if you are treating for ich,
What is wrong? do you have a sick fish?

Both should be able to tolerate 82F for 2 weeks. I wouldn't raise the temp unless you have ich in the tank.
