    Hi, I have been working with dbts for a long time and I have never been able to get rid of shell rot in freshwater. I have even had problems getting rid of shell rot at 1.012 saline level. Bringing the salt level up to 1.018 has been the quickest and most effective way I have found to stop the spread of shell rot and start the healing process.
