So getting a harlequin tusk on Wed. I have used copper on wrasse before with success. I have a 20 gallon qt with large canister filter. Would like to use prazipro first then do copramine. Any advice would be appreciated. First high dollar fish I'm getting so kinda nervous. Have qt a ****** trigger, Melanarous wrasse, fox face and a tang previously for a few months after a velvet outbreak. So I know how to qt just don't know if these guys are a little different. He is only a 3" Aussie. Thanks!
 
Harlequin tuskfish are pretty hardy. Your plan sounds good.

Yup they are exceptionally hardy once established. The first 1-3 weeks they can be tricky, the longer you hold off on treating any wrasse the better although I've had tusk handle copper immediately without issue.
