    EMERGENCY Ich in display tank (with softies)

    Hi all! On Friday, I noticed that my Moorish Idol had a few white spots that looked like ich. At first, I thought it might be stress-related, but today there are significantly more spots. He’s still eating well and behaving normally, and I haven’t seen any signs of ich on the other fish apart...

    EMERGENCY Need advice asap for ich

    Last night I noticed the spots on my skunk clowns, so I spent 3 hours getting them out of the tank and put them in QT and started copper treatment.

    EMERGENCY I don’t know what’s wrong with my tang!!

    I was positive the problem was an internal parasite, because his poop has been these giant white milky clouds. But it’s not really stringy like people usually describe it. As mentioned they’re big white milky clouds that come out of him but they also have thin flat white clumps in them. The only...

    Fish steadily dying in QT. Breathing heavily with no other symptoms

    I had an ich outbreak in my DT about 26 days ago, and yanked all of my fish out of the tank, moved into multiple QT tanks.

    My seahorse is suffering from snout rot and I've been using Kanaplex to heal her. It says up to 3 doses and I hit that 3rd dose yesterday. Can I repeat a 4th, and possibly a 5th dose if need be? Do I need to change the water out if I can do the 4th dose?
