Are you using coppersafe? The full dose for that at is 2.25 ppm, but most fish tolerate up to 2.5. I’m not sure at what point you’ll start seeing toxic reactions, I’ve never gone above 2.55

This well could be mucus plugs on the tang - copper does cause that.

I may see better with the new video.

Hey,

I'm using copper power.

He looks a lot better after I did yesterday's water change.
Copper power and coppersafe are essentially identical.

I don’t see anything alarming in that video.
