Hi. First post. Looking for some advice.
I have a Yellow Eye Kole Tang going through quarantine. I have him isolated in a quarantine/hospital tank. When I got him he had a few small white spots on one side of his face. No signs of cloudy eye. He successfully made it through 30 days of copper power at 2.0 using a Hanna checker. During that time the white spot grew, but not at an alarming rate so I stayed the course on finishing the copper. The fish also showed ich spots during the treatment so I didn't want to cut it short and didn't have a second tank to do TTM. At the end of the 30 days I did a 100% water change and started antibiotics following the Metroplex + Kanaplex + Furan-2 ten day protocol. Here I am on day 10 of the antibiotics and I am trying to figure out what to do next. I would say the spot has stabilized and kind of changed it's consistency over the last ten days but isn't showing signs of disappearing. Currently I am planning on extending the antibiotics out to day 14 and then ending. Trying to figure out what to try next or see if anyone with more experience can give a better diagnosis that sets me on a different direction. I have a few pictures. The before picture is a screen grab from a video so it is pretty fuzzy but it helps show the change over the last 40 day. Got 2 nice clear pictures of the current condition.
