How to spot whitespot, velvet, fin rot & dropsy — and why your QT is the best tool you have.
Body (158 words)

Most disease outbreaks in established tanks trace back to one thing: a fish added without quarantine.

We've put together a practical guide covering the four diseases UK hobbyists encounter most — white spot, velvet, fin rot, and dropsy — with identification signs, treatment frameworks, and a species-sensitivity table that matters if you're keeping stingrays, Bichir, or L-number Plecos.

Black Arowana (Osteoglossum ferreirai) — early disease identification is critical in large specimen fish

Key things the guide covers:

  • Why velvet kills faster than ich — and how to tell them apart with a torch
  • Copper is lethal to stingrays at therapeutic doses — what to use instead
  • When dropsy is worth treating and when to call a fish vet
  • Minimum QT spec and exactly how long to hold new arrivals

Every fish we ship has been health-checked and confirmed feeding. Your quarantine tank is what takes it from there.
