Nice QT tank!!! Do you have a Ammonia Alert by Seachem on your QT? they do let you know when you need to do a water change.
It could actually be velvet. Copper treats it effectively. I would think, since it's an invertebrate, that copper would kill flukes, too.
On the other hand, your tang could be having a reaction to the copper. So it's a touchy sort of thing.
There's formalin....but it's kind of dangerous to use. :/Yeah, not really sure what to do at this point.. Copper treats him, yet he reacted badly
Don't forget ich has life cycle stages and your fish will appear fine, when in fact the ich only fell off your fish to reproduce,only to reinfect your fish 10 fold. You need to get proper test kit.So you have proper amount of cupramine in your water to keep the fish from getting reinfected.
Wonderful to hear! Apparently I was wrong...I really must do more research on flukes...!
After two weeks of Prazipro, looking very healthy and eating like an absolute pig. I have placed him into the Display tank.
My LEDs were near the end of the cycle and dim actinic. The Achilles was swimming out in the open checking out the tank while flared up. He wasnt skittish at all. Eventually my little yellow tang spotted him and started to show what hes got as well. After a few minutes of showing off the tomini entered the picture more agressively than the yellow. There was some body smashing but no noticeable damage to eachother. I decided to just turn off the lights.
This morning at 5 he was doing what he always does, swimming the current happily. Hopefully after a couple of days the pecking order is established and done with. I dont get how/why people get like 7 tangs in a tank smaller than what mine is.
