Yes prazipro is safe to use on all of them but I usually give them a few days to settle in and begin eating before starting. Dose once then do a water change 24-48hrs later than redose 5-7days later. Leopards can sometimes be difficult in QT. I have found that if you load the QT up with pods and the fish was eating before purchasing then the success rate is pretty high. They have all eventually taken to frozen and even pellets and are super hardy once this happens. It really depends what type of shape the fish was in BEFORE you got her. Have a variety of foods on hands especially smaller sized ones like nutramar, cyclops, cyclopeeze, hikari mysis and live black worms if you can find them as they get even the pickiest eaters to eat. I have successfully ran my leopards and a twistii wrasse through full 30 day copper treatment. The key is to raise the copper levels slowly over 7-10 days.I'm looking to get 1 yellow coris and 3 leopard wrasses. Is there a special treatment for these fish? Is prazipro safe to use?

Awesome, just watch nutrient levels because of increased feedings. I usually try to feed once an hour for the first week or two till they put some weight back on. Have new saltwater always ready to go. I would do the water change once they dove back in the sand for the night as not to stress them out anymore than they already are.Qt is set up and I dropped some chaeto in there. Descent pod population going. I will pick up some cyclopeeze and try to find some roe as well. Thanks for the help
Make sure to only use ambient light for the first week or so and start feeding now a little every hour they're out. Approach the tank slow and add the food, if you move too fast they'll get spooked.Leopards are in the qt now. One looks to breathing heavy and laying on it's side. Has moved around some but has me concerned.
Anything I can do?
The other two are already going after pods.
How long should I wait before trying to feed them?
