Okey i will put it through quarantine again. i did not get all the fish last time as i am having a hard time catching my yellow goby who has build a big underwater cave with a pistol shrimp. 45 days is enough? Originally i decided to try to not eradicate it due to needing 76 days but it appears this might be neccesary.To me it looks like a bad case of ick.
did you remove ALL fish and treat them?
In order To rid the tank of ick- all fish should be removed and treated in a separate qt tank. Additionally main tank needs to go fallow (fish less) for atlease 45 days.
there are a few different treatments you could do, but I think copper power it the easiest way.
Good luck
What treatment did you try so far?At first i made a bunch of post due to my tang having a few spots of White spots on it. I did a ich treatment, but Well it looks like this is velvet instead… What do i do???
I used esha trimarin for a very short duration of 4 days. There is only a Blue tang, a clown and a yellow goby in the reef tank.What treatment did you try so far?
What other fish are in with it?
Any other symptoms on any fish?

8 corals, 20 Inverts sadlyAny coral/inverts in the tank? Hyposalinity could be an option if copper is not available.
True - I was assuming it was a mainly copper med.I respectfully disagree. A lot of meds that contain copper have sub therapeutic dosage. If you are in the UK you should have access do cupramine I believe. Cupramine, coppersafe and copper power are you three true copper meds that can ensure therapeutic dosage.
Only thing it says is “contains copper”
25 drops Per 100 liter first day, then 12 drops the next 2 days.Dosing a medication that contains copper without using a copper test kit is really risky. My guess is that this product contains a low dose of copper, low enoughg that you don't need a test kit, but also so low as it probably won't be effective. Does the label give any indication as to strength of the copper?
