Hi Cangel
Thank you very much for the results of the tests.
Fish strives well in pH 7.5 to 9 but it is good to understand that ammonia becomes life threatening as pH goes up.
So with pH at 8.6 we have to control the level of ammonia.
Your immediate actions will be:
1. 10% to 20% daily water change
2. Maintain a 0.3% salt level
3. Aerates your pond aggressively. Spray bar may be ideal.
4. No feeding for the next 3 days
5. Test the water daily and comes back with the results.
For your sick fish, I will reply at your other post.
