I keep losing my fish in qt. Treatment is Cupramine and sometimes PraziPro. I don't use Prazi but once a week if I use it. My fish will be fine for a week and then they just crash. Ammonia not 0 but .05-.25. Ph is 8.2. Salt 1.026

Hello friend. I personally am not the best at qt. I generally don’t treat fish unless they show some signs of a problem. Usually a fresh water dip, then in qt for a observation period. I find the medication is pretty stressful on the fish and I personally don’t treat unless needed. But again- I may not have the best practice for this. Just wanted to share what I do. Good luck friend and happy reefing!

Do you use Prime?
Per the site:
Do not use any products which contain reducing agents (conditioners, ammonia binders, etc.) while using Cupramine.

I also dont use copper. 36 hrTTM and Prazi 2x in 14 days

My goal is to have another achilles so qt is required
