I have a pair of mocha storm clownfish in QT and they are on day 7 of Cupramine being at the therapeutic dose of 0.5mg/L One clown is about 1.75 inches and is eating like a hog the other is smaller 1.25 inches and has barely eaten since the cupramine was ramped up. Seems to bite at food then spits it out. Today it’s parking on the bottom and breathing fast. No visible parasites, 25% of the water in the 40g tank has been changed about every 3-4 days and redosed with cupramine, Salifert test shows pretty clearly 0.5 mg/L to my eyes. Doses measured to the 100ths of a cc in syringes.
Big one seems 100% fine but I wouldn’t be surprised to loose the little one soon. Tried 4 different types of food even with garlic guard no feeding, was eating before the copper.
Should I do a big water change and dilute the copper out? Maybe a copper sensitive fish?
