John,

If the damage has already been done a good help to the fish is to add Vit C
to the water. It is very effective in helping fish that have had Brown
Blood Disease or have been burnt by ammonia. A while ago, it was a
technique that was you had to watch very carefully because the Vit C can
turn the water acidic, unless you had a very good biofilter and good KH in
the tank or pond. The gentleman that perfected this technique is an
aquaculturist and a scientist, of course, he also produced a Non-Acidic Vit
C to use in the aquarium, but now that Ester-C is on the market and at a
reasonable price it is easier to implement. If you are interested drop me a
line and I will give you my special URL to read about it. I suggested this
technique to a friend in Great Britain that had rescued some fish that were
suffering badly from Brown Blood Disease and it worked wonderfully. Also in
the mean time make sure you have plenty of air going into the tank where the
injured fish are being held.

In fact, both Noga and other vets say that the concentrations used in
Ingrid's procedure can be fatal.

Oh, to answer you question H2O2 can "burn" the gills of the fish if too
high
a concentration is used.

HTH


the concentration was ok it was the timing hopefully they will
recover in a day or two
what I have been able to find out on google
I think it is similar to a amonia burn to the gills and they can survive
that with good water and time
