Moved my 3 Clowns from medicated QT 3 weeks ago into a sterile tank. In the medicated tank, I had treated with CP at 2.5ppm verified with Hanna checker, metro and API GC.
For the 3 weeks they've been in the sterile observation tank, they've occasionally had what looked like spots on them but wasn't sure, so kept observing. I have noticed them yawning and occasionally going to surface for air so I was given advice that it may be Prazi resistant gill Flukes.
However, today I observed the below in the pictures. After doing a 5 minute FW dip, the spots were still present. Does this look like the beginning of Brook?
I am setting up another QT so I can treat and move and medicate again if necessary.
Medicine I have on hand is Ruby Reef Rally Pro, Metro, API GC, PraziPro, Fenbendazole, Rid Ich and antibiotics. Unfortunately I don't have 37% Formalin on hand, although I've been told this would be the preferred treatment.
Would a 90 minute bath in RRR pro followed by 2 weeks of Metro in a sterile tank help if this is Brook? Or should I do the RRR pro bath and then just repeat treatment with Copper and Metro to hit all my bases for parasites?
Any other thoughts on what this may be and treatment options are welcome.
