How long to adjust to QT before treatment? One is a Foxface and he’s still in camo mode. Thanks
 
When I receive foxfaces I treat them same day. Just about every foxface I've received has been incredibly shy for the first week and sometimes more. Like if you walk by the tank it pins itself in a corner and goes camo.
 
I’ve only QTed two fish (currently in there). I gave them a week. My Midas blenny was comfortable right away but my green clown goby took over 2 weeks to be comfortable.
 
Unless I can clearly see something that looks bad, I wait until they're eating really good If they weren't to start. Then I'll slowly raise copper to therapeutic levels, usually about a week.

This is exactly what he is doing
