i purchased this fish along with a Randall anthia and a female blue star leopard wrasse from LA ( west coast ) and they were delivered Tuesday and were in the QT tank by noon. All fish ate within a couple of hours. All day Wednesday they all appeared normal, but by Thursday the McCosker was flashing and only eating a little so the tank was treated with prazipro at 6 PM. Friday he seemed active at times and then he would hide in the pvc elbow and appeared dead, but his colors were still vibrant. He appeared this way all day Saturday and Sunday morning there was no improvement in his condition. I did a FW dip for 5 min and put him back in the QT. About 10 flukes fell off during his dip, and he exhibited heavy breathing during this dip. Then I added him back to the QT and he appears in slightly better condition.
Question 1. Why did prazipro not work?
2. Are the other fish infected since all were in same QT?
3. Anything else I can do?
