Hello! I currently have a Regal and 3 Bimaculatus Anthias in QT. I noticed flukes immediately upon arrival, so we started with API GC. They've successfully gone through two rounds at this point, and all fish look incredible and are eating well.
I noticed in Humblefish's and HotRocks QT procedures, they always start with Copper. I haven't treated with Copper and to this point, I haven't found a need too (with these fish).
Am I overlooking something? If I see nothing else on the fish, is there a reason to treat with Copper? I have no problems doing it - but to my knowledge, Ich is the main thing treated by Copper, and if I don't see any signs of it, do I need to even do it? Is it used as a "just in case?"
Would appreciate any insight! Right now they all look great, eating lots - and I was going to observe them for a couple weeks to make sure I saw nothing else, but if they 'need' copper, then I'd like to go ahead and start that!
