dosed 1st dose 4 days ago now as was what i could get quickly 2nd dose yesterday

Oh! That is longer ago than I thought, plenty of time for the treatment to begin to work. I think you should see how this second dose helps....

The GC label says only two doses, but the ingredients it contains can be dosed 3x as long as you space them out 5-7 days, and perform a 25% water change before the second and third doses.

He's almost completely better glad he is making such a recovery I really didn't expect him to live.

Ah, I missed your note that you had another royal gramma in with it. Although this species lives in loose aggregations in the wild, keeping them in pairs in captivity often leads to either fighting or mating (grin). I'm really leaning towards this one having gotten hammered by the other one - just watch when you reintroduce them.

Ok yeah def a possibility, I was going to get him his own "house" to make sure he had a safe place hopefully that will help but will def watch. Worst case I'll have to give one to a friend.
