Five weeks at full copper and yes I added copper to the new water before I put it in. The first 72 days was too low of copper hence the fail.Confirm how long you’ve had copper at a therapeutic level. During water changes, did you add Cu to the clean new salt water prior to adding it to the QT?
A 10 G sounds way too small for those fish.
From the look of the yellow tang I don't have much time he is getting worse by the hour. I only have a ten gallon tank not being used right now. I do have ten gallons of Pacific Ocean water in a box from Petco. Will the four fish be ok till I can bleach and dry the 55 QT? Or just put the yellow tang in the new QT?The redish marking and the tattered fins can be symptoms of a bacterial infection. EM works largely on gram positive infections. Recommend you consider treating the tang with NFG. It works wonders on these red sore areas and treats a large spectrum of gram negative bacterial infections. Furan2 + Metro + Kanaplex will also work but highly recommend the NFG.

Focus on the tang. You are right. Those red-ish markings are of urgent attention. What meds do you have on hand? Furan2, Kanaplex, Triplesulfa?From the look of the yellow tang I don't have much time he is getting worse by the hour. I only have a ten gallon tank not being used right now.

All I have is API E.M and GCFocus on the tang. You are right. Those red-ish markings are of urgent attention. What meds do you have on hand? Furan2, Kanaplex, Triplesulfa?
Fresh water dip before I drop him in new QT?
I'm sure I could get it done in 24 hours but I don't want to. Only one more week and I can start using DT.If you are going to bleach and sterilize the 55 immediately and that’s all you have then I would do it.

Do I need to acclimate him or just match water temp and salt?
By all means, dose the EM. Be mindful that EM can be hard on the bio conditions. Can add some bacteria in a bottle like, BioSpira, etc. to offset the EM's effects. Keep an eye on the ammonia level.Ok the ten gallon is cleaned and running just need to get it up to temp. Should I use E.M tonight or get something tomorrow?
