Guys I dont know what is wrong with my Emperor (Juv). He had Ich like 3-4 months back. He was treated with copper and hypo for over a month. During that time he got rid of the ich and started eating less things. He came to a point where he only ate algae sheets. My Majestic Angel who also had Ich (adult) also was being treated but remained eating everything i put in there, shrimp, pellets, sheets, literally anything i put in. The Emperor used to eat Pellets soaked in Garlic, Pellets not soaked, some flakes and the Algae sheets as well.
Anyway he has been around for at least 8-10 months with me. After the copper/hypo they both seemed good except that Emperor only ate algae sheets. I moved them to a newly setup tank 150 Gal/20 Sump. tank was cycled for about a month, saw the algae blooms, changed water and everyone has been in the new tank for over a month already. While moving, both angels got caught in the net(1 at a time) and it was hard to get him loose. Point is i definitely stressed them out while moving them. My Majestic seems a little shy in the new tank but she definitely swims all over and eats the same. Emperor on the other hand has been eating less and less. He is getting all blotchy in color. No ich spots and no mucus or anything coming off of his skin. 1 day i did notice a small white string hanging out of his anus really small, looked like a little white hook coming out. I haven't seen it for a few days but he has stopped eating from what I can see.
Yesterday i setup my QT 35 Gal and put him in there alone, no sand just 1 plastic rock for him to hide behind. Skimmer, Filter with no media and a heater. I dosed the tank with Parashield but not even sure what he has. Def not Ich and although i have never seen velvet from what i read it doesnt sound like it because its actually color loss spots on him.
Parashield claims treats or "relieves" symptoms of ich, velvet and other common parasites. Anyway its been 1 day and I think he will recover but I am not sure what he even has or if i am treating correctly....
