Have two Gold Nugget Maroons almost 4 weeks in QT. Running Coppersafe in a 10 gallon w/ sponge filter. I added a Half Black Angel within 2 weeks. Started with half DT water & now do water changes with DT water.
So, I believe NOW BOTH my clownfish have fin rot. I thought 1 was being bullied so I put the other 2 in an isolation box. Fins would not FULLY heal & usual color would not return. I suspect fin rot. Fins aren’t the usual dark maroon color they're an orange with dark ends that started spreading up the fin but not badly tattered like fin rot, anal fin even healed from being split during the beginning stages of me watching this . I was treating my QT with Kanaplex, Focus, Garlic Guard pellets once a day for 7 days (last day today). I put my angel in my DT last night because she wasn’t showing signs of fin rot or any other infection & I didn’t want it to become immune to Kanaplex. Clownfish start fighting, equal aggressors, I isolate whoever I can get. I wake up to split fins on both clownfish.
I’m not sure if the other ones fin rot is now taking over or if it’s from the fighting last night. Fins are the usual color. The 1 I assumed had fin rot fins are now significantly shorter as well as unimproved. Should I wait a couple days & run another round of Kanaplex in the water this time? Buy something else? Help please.
Parameters are fine, can’t run a test right now for exact numbers.
