So, let me give a brief summary of what's going on. I recently upgraded from a 90/G to a 180/G that I dropped and broke (don't ask). Now I upgraded to a 220/G. Tank has all of my old LR and Marine Pure Bio Balls. The sand was really dirty, so I had to rinse and bleach it. Needless to say, with the new sand and pipe, the tank went through a mini cycle and diatom bloom for a little over a week. It's leveling out now, but everything needs to mature. Still waiting on my skimmer, because I ordered the wrong one and sent it back. With that said, it's not a surprise that my new Magnifica (just posted pictures of him) deflated and got sick. I'm out of Cipro at the moment, but the new bottle will arrive Monday. I still have some Septra on hand, so I figured I would treat him with that for documentation purposes. As I stated in the Treatment Protocol thread, Magnifica's tend to respond better with Cipro, and Gigantea with Septra. I have treated Mags in the past with Septra and had mixed results. So... we'll see how this goes.
Before deflation and infection:
After In DT:
In 10/G treatment tank:
Close up:
So today (9/6/14) I dosed 1/2 pill to a little more than 5/G. 10/G tank is about 1/2 full.
