Detta beror på vilka fiskar och vÄxter man har. Om du vill "doppa" så hittar du inf. här:

Jag har själv gjort det med gott resultat. Vad som Är viktigt är att du tar upp fisken (innan de föreskrivna 5min) om den lägger sig på sidan, även efter du petat till den igen (som det är beskrivet i texten).
Du skrev om avlivning - Det vore synd om du avlivade om den bara har ett parasit angrepp.
<b>Parasiter och bakterier finns oftast (alltid) närvarande i ett akvarium - fiskarana blir endast attakerade/sjuka när deras immunförsvar nedsatts - detta händer vid tex. chock eller dåliga vatten värden. Därför är första hjälpen ett 50% vattenbyte och därefter salt. Saltet ökar även produktionen utav slemmet på fisken och gör den mer resistent mot parasit och bakterie angrepp. </b>
Detta har jag läst mig till på olika siter om och om igen - jag börjar undra om jag har fel??? Eller är det bara jag som har hittat denna informationen???
Kjell! Kommentar?

Changing the water is undoubtedly the most important and risk free treatment for fish. The tank water should be tested first for toxins (it helps to know if the nitrites spiked), then change the water immediately. If the fish start acting better in an hour or two, that may be all the treatment that is necessary. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size=2 id=quote>

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>citat:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>TUB TO TUB
The Chinese found early in the history of keeping Goldfish that moving fish to fresh water every day could overcome disease. In the past 5 gallon buckets were suggested, but my experience is that the GREATER THE VOLUME OF WATER THE BETTER. I generally use a couple of extra 20 gallon tanks I have sitting around, but a couple of 20- 40 gallon rubbermaid tubs serves the same purpose. When not in use they stack and can be filled with all that miscellaneous goldfish stuff that accumulates.
1. Rinse both, fill with fresh water, add dechlor if needed and put an airstone in both. A single double outlet wave castle air pump from Kmart will do for both. Put the sick fish in the first tub while letting the water age overnight in the other. If the water is to be heated (for dropsy) add the heater. If heat is needed, then either two heaters are needed, or some of the water in the second tub can be heated and mixed until the correct temp is reached right before the fish is moved over.
When using medications, aging the water will get rid of the dechlor which inactivates the most commonly used medications.
2. Put the fish in the first tub with an airstone. Add the medication (if any). With a larger volume of water it is unlikely that the ammonia level will climb very high, but check the ammonia levels after 12 hours. If the ammonia is more than barely perceptible, move the fish to the tub of aged water without waiting. Otherwise, wait 24 hours, then move the fish to the new/aged tub of water. After moving the fish, dump the water out, clean it well (I use the soap-less betadine on an aquarium sponge), put in water conditioner and let it age overnight.
3. Feed fish in the tub about an hour before you move the fish. They will eliminate soon after eating. Then move the fish. This leaves behind the excess food and wastes and keeps the water cleaner. If dips are being done add the meds to the water, leave the fish in for the prescribed time then move the fish to the new water. If meds are going into the water for continuos use, then add to the new aged water and mix well before moving the fish into the new tub. Most meds will spot burn a fish if too concentrated.
Fresh water in a tub overcomes several problems. First, there can be something toxic in the tank, gravel, stones, decorations, wood, sometimes there is nothing that can be identified. If only one fish is sick and the others are fine, getting the sick fish out to recover is essential for keeping the other fish healthy. A sick fish sheds disease into the tank and makes the tank unhealthy. Moving the fish tub to tub moves the sick fish away from parasites or bacteria they are shedding and this helps them recover.
Because there is no filter (unlike a quarantine tank generally used for a month), there is less likely to be something in the filter that is the problem. 20 gallon glass tanks have one benefit, the whole fish can easily be seen. 2 - 20 gallon tanks sit on the typical stand for 20 gallon tanks and do not take up much space. But if there just isnt room, the tubs are the next best alternative. Tubs are also great backup in case of cracked tanks, an unplanned purchase of fish, or in case of eggs/fry suddenly showing up.
