Well, this sux
Dispar #2 going downhill
Plan is to get all 4 out and do a ruby reef rally dip, and hope they don’t all have something. Then back into copper + met
I just can’t do it this side of 4 pm, and I’m sure she ain’t going to make it that long

Sorry for your losses.Brutal.
No evidence of flukes during dip.
Thin one passed about 60 seconds into dip.
Took the body out and put it on a dark lid with FW for 5 more mins- no flukes.
Last three made it to the new tank, where I was about to dose prazipro just in case I saw flukes. Salinity is matched, temp matched, hob and air stone.
10 seconds after they go in, the big one gets ‘lockjaw’ and is immediately dead. Other two immediately went under the pvc and are acting like #2 was this morning.
I am beyond sad right now
Since they aren't symotomatic and you have been medicating for 24 hours they may be out of the woods. You will know soon enough. My fingers are crossed!Thanks Kyle, appreciate it.
If it is uronema, I’ll find it on necropsy. I’m going to put these guys on ice and store them until I drop coin on a ‘scope. Wasn’t planning on getting one soon, but there are nice ~$200 options that will be good for this sort of stuff.
So- expect these guys to succumb over next day or two? There are back in copper 1.75 ppm and metroplex abd I’ll feed them GC dosed food. But since uronema is so virulent its probably too advanced at this point given 3/5 already died, unless some individuals are resistant.
Uhh, man. [emoji17]
You will know soon enough.

Several scope options south of $200, I agree!
I’ve seen the thread around here, but haven’t weighed in - no time- but I might go take another look. Hopefully I can help a few people to an economical decision - anything a ‘consumer’ is likely to be able to fully use is in that price range. Even my ‘open bench scope’ at work used to be a $250 model (I refabbed the lighting, but it’s mostly stock). Nice simple tool compared to the research scope that i put together for my main work (live-cell real-time video imaging of single bacteria interacting with gut cells).
For what it’s worth, the one you recommended I get is awesome. I know nothing about microscopes but this thing is super easy and, therefore, fun to use!
Better in QT than the display right? Still sucks.Yeah, I’m bummed but I have several fish that seem to be healthy and eating. I think I might lose one more based on its body shape compared to the other 3. I’m toying with isolating it and target feeding, but with wife in France and daycare off due to ‘snow’ it’s hard to see how I’m going to get time.
I’m going to try to carve out an hour later
Did you post the one you got?For what it’s worth, the one you recommended I get is awesome. I know nothing about microscopes but this thing is super easy and, therefore, fun to use!
