Hi folks!
My Brown Powder Tang had some ich on its fins. I prepared a fresh water dip and an Ich x dip (per Ich x directions) using water from the tank. Put the fish in the freshwater dip for 5 minutes, then put it into the Ich x dip for 30 minutes, then put him back into the DT. He appeared to be fine at first, but soon after, he looked like this:
Based on another similar pic I found on here, it is either Ich or Velvet.
I prepared a hospital tank. Only thing I had a spare of is a 3.5 gallon, so I took water from the DT, added 4ml of CopperSafe and placed him in that tank. This morning when I checked on him, he looks like this:
I have no idea what to do or what that means. Am I wishfully thinking that the hospital tank is working correctly and those dark spots are just a byproduct of the therapeutic process? Or should I be realistically thinking that it's gotten worse.
Thanks.
