Just in case this is your first dip, when you do the dip make sure the water is temp matched and you have a lot of air moving around with an air stone/ pump while your dipping.

This is a real shock to the fish and some don't make it. Don't dip in a plastic cup or something like that.

Just follow the directions in the thread and you'll be good ;)

Good luck ;)
 
Also a good idea to have it approximately pH-matched, as well as temp-matched.
pH is most easily adjusted by adding a small amount of tank water to the freshwater dip.
 
He seemed 2 get better last night but sadly died in the night i just hope it aint passed 2 any of my other fish. Thanks for ur help tho guys much appreciated.
