That's kind of why I was hoping to dose the whole Aquarium for that just in case
Stick with 85% solution as prazi reduces both oxygen and appetite

This is possibly wrong - though its unclear to what you're referring to - if one is dosing in a display - 85% is reasonable - if in a QT tank - use the 100% dosage

Quit confusing this person. He's using a sump area and As much as I have used product- 85% which Jay has often supported is best application and Im not spending the afternoon arguing with you.,

I think everyone for their help and input. What I am going to do is use the small part of my refugium or what was supposed to be at my refugium part of the sump as the treatment area. I have the stuff on order for the treatment and I'm going to get an air stone. This is so everything's on the safe side and I know nothing else in the tank can get affected by what I'm going to do just in case. If The Cowfish keep presenting the same problems it will get switched out when the other one is looking better just to be on the safe side as well. Thank you all again

I disagree with you - You mean stop confusing the person with the correct information? - it's getting tiresome. The 85% rule is for a display - it's not for a QT tank with PVC. And - additionally - Lymphocystis is a disease. LOl - just like herpes or another viral infection - to answer another of your common comments.

btw - using a sump area to medicate a fish - unless its not connected to the main tank makes absolutely no sense - so its unclear what the heck you're talking about.

I buy from QT venders but I now put them in an observation tank and run them through 3 rounds of prazi (days 1, 5, 7 in my case). Flukes seems to be coming through some batches of QT fish.

I assume the fish will get flukes again when you put it back in the DT unless you are just putting it in the sump to isolate it from aggression? and still treating all of the tank?

This is the refugium part of my sump that I don't really use. I'm also cleaning it out so it can be used for what I'm wanting to do. It can be completely cut off from the rest of the sump without water leaking

I agree, I leaned on them coming in 100% clean to much and now i paid for it. If I get more I will be doing a bath in it and I am going to do all fish so I don't have more loss
