Help to identify a disease on my Scopas

[Jay Hemdal]

thank you!
In using the Hanna checker Copper High range.
Ah first the level was 2,01, i used the calculator and dosed it up go 2,5 and i measured today with Hanna and it was 2,51 so its very accurate.
How long does it usally take for the ich to die off in 2,5ppm? (Im on day 3 now. First 3 days at 2,0, then 3 days to 2,5)

I usually see ich stop getting worse at 2.5 ppm around day 3.

It takes 3 days for coppersafe to take effect and you want to go a Full 30 days.

That's not what I would consider "normal", but do you think the infection has at least been slowed down?

Its definitely slowed down.
This is DAY 2 compairing to DAY 8 on the scopas tang:
Day 2

Day 8 (today)i started the lights at midnight just to observate the fish


My clowns, or at least one of them still got lots of spots. Can it possible be mucus plugs or does it look like ich? (This is today)

I'd just give it more time, as long as the infection is stable.
