Hi,
I added my hippo tang into my DT after 3 weeks in Cupramine quarantine.
About a week after adding him I saw these black dots forming on him.
Understanding that this is black ich, I did the following dosing schedule in my main display tank that is pretty much only fish with some inverts and 2 pieces on choral.
Dosed full prazipro on November 14th.
Did water change and redosed 6 days later on the 20th.
Black dots were gone.
I noticed black dots coming back on Friday night the 25th so I dosed again.
This time I wanted to be tougher, so I dosed 3.5 days later on the 29th morning, and again 3.5 days later on Friday the 2nd.
Everything was clear from the 25th until now on the 5th. I just noticed 2 new dots.
I Just dosed the DT again.
Am I doing something wrong?
Or can it be that it’s just not black ich..
hes eating normally, and not flashing.
(I may see him scratch once every couple days. But definitely no regular scratching. And ive spent a lot of time watching him)
and no other fish seem to have this issue. So I’m not sure if it’s just a hippo thing that I should ignore.
im hoping todays dose is the last one..
As prazipro messes up the tank
