My point was that I am in full agreement with Fishlips. There was obviously a lot of stress when you added four new fish to an established setup. The result was a little scratching and a few spots. I absolutely don't want to say 'I told you so". In hindsight you would probably not have experienced the losses you did if you had just left it alone. Fish usually get over the sress, and the spots would have gone away on their own. A few parasites almost never kill fish, and even if you had lost one or two, it would have been better than the catastrophy you went through. Sorry to be so harsh, but we live and learn (sometimes with great expense).
