hi I'm new to this forum, I need help, a couple of weeks ago one of my fancy fish had a paracite I took it off and went to pets at home and asked what I need to use for paracites they gave me some aquarium salt and now all my fish are covered in them its really bad I'm literally scraping 5 at a time off. what can I use to put in the aqaurium to stop all these horrid things?
 
I got em all n killed em all there like little clear discs with grey spots and a set of eyes. i'll keep an eye out for the next ones n i'l post a pic.
 
What did Pets At Home tell you they were?
 
Please post more information so that we can help
 
Sounds like fish lice, everything I've read says Clout is the best treatment. Also some success using Dimlin.
 
They are fancy goldfish, Basically I found one one one of my fish then not long later the lot of them got some disease where all there fins went red, I put some GOLD disease safe in and the fins cleared up but unfortunatley the fish which had the paracite died about a week ago, so I did a whole water change and put the aquarium salt in and some more disease safe in to be safe but now they are covered in paracites, i looked up fish diseases on google and I think they are fish lice, I checked the PH of my tank and it is 7.7. is there anywhere online where I can get some treatment for this?
