It could potentially stress the fish but due to the small change done it is very easy to get away with.
L201 prefer a low pH so its best to make her as comfortable as possible.

How is she looking? has it stopped spreading at all? I hope she starts to show sings of getting healthier

The infection has stopped and all seem's well, im doing daily melafix and pimafix treatment just under the reccomendations.
Thankyou to brengun who put me onto a good source of almond leaves.
I will do a 20% water change on wednesday and another on saturday and feeding once every 2 days as these are already really fat 201s so just enough to keep her emunity high. I have also acquired aroun 7 more 201s at 5cm so this should break up the individual aggression levels.
Will keep you posted.

Ummm it seems the additive of meds and the few small but constant water changes may have got the male and female in the mooood.
Her grazes are going away slowly it seems she is now more active than ever.
I will still be getting the new lot though so its going to be quite a large colony.
