Is that ok for an Oscar? Is there a better solution? Just introduced to the tank (55 gallon)2 days ago, hes the only occupant. |

The bad news is that it's capacity is 55Gallons! You will have to treat the entire tank. Taking out the oscar and placing it in a smaller still leaves the parasite in the larger tank. I looked up treating an Oscar with that specific medication and found a caution. Here is the article, read through it and then decide: http://www.oscarfishlover.com/treating-white-spot Frank  -->>> The Confidence of Amateurs, is the Envy of Professionals <<<-- |
