Quarantining a large blue angel fish

[arvind]

Just got a angel fish. I am planning to quarantine him in a 30 gallon tank. Right now acclimating. I am planning to follow the guidelines from the sticky. Are there anything particular that I should be concerned about QTing an Angel fish?

Be careful with the copper, angels and wrasses are more sensitive than other fish to copper. I would consider using a chelated copper such as Copper Power or Copper Safe. And remember when you begin the copper treatment to take a few days up to a week to get to full therapeutic levels.

Sure, thanks. I am planning to use Coppersafe.

I've used both CP & copper on Blue Angels with good results. Prazipro as well.

As @bknapp suggested, take 4-5 days to get Coppersafe up to full therapeutic levels.
