General Cure question

[Pete Paschall]

I have a 20 gallon QT that I put 2 clownfish into yesterday. There was already a Pink Streaked Wrasse in there that I have been feeding food soaked with GC and Focus. I am continuing to feed the GC + Focus, but was wondering if I should also do the external GC treatment into the water column (one packet per 10 gallons). Thanks!

If you don't have any corals or inverts you can treat by just adding it to the water. However if you do have those you would have to put them in qt to treat the water as metroplex (an ingredient in general cure) is toxic to inverts and corals

If the fish are eating well and you are sure to be properly mixing the meds in the food, there would be not need to dose the water column. I only dose the water column when the fish are not eating, or in my case only eating live food. I don't know for sure but some say it;s more effective in the food.
