Hello,
This is my first post on here and of course it's regarding ich :/. I've been following all of the great advices and set up a hospital tank for all of my fish who went through an ich + velvet outbreak. The hospital tank is a 55 gallon and I'm currently on day 12 of Cupramine treatment. The copper concentration is kept constant at 0.5g/ml, ammonia 0, temp 82, and salinity 35. At first all of the fish were cleared of any white dots after 3 days of the treatment. However on day 9, some of them get reinfected again. But in this case, I'm not sure if it's ich or velvet or something else. The dots do not look like the ich dots in the beginning. I attached a couple of pictures here. On the sailfin tang there isn't really any dots, just some small pumps. Please help me identify what the fish is having and the best course of treatment for them. I just started using focus and metroplex on their food today. I plan on doing a 30 days treatment of Cupramine as recommended here.
Thanks a lot for all the help!
