Update: I gave the last remaining horse a freshwater bath: warmed RO water to temperature of the tank with a bubbler inside to oxygenate the water, added baking soda until pH was matched (or close enough, man I hate those colour tests) then put him in there for 10 minutes. He was quite wiggly and didn’t like it, but survived it. Seems happy back in the tank now. In the water from the dip I found several hair like structures, worms presumably, and some small flecks. Good question now is how to treat the tank so those nasties go away? I can’t do this daily…
