Can I use prazipro and copper in the qt?
Yes. The presence of copper diminishes prazi's overall effectiveness. But IME; it was still enough to get the job done.

Well, I was wrong. One of my wrasses had one spots on his front fins. I took apart the whole tank and got the remaining 4 out. I did a 50% water change in the QT. My question is, should I dose the prozi as well in the QT? I don't want to stress them out anymore, but if you don't think it would, I will dose it. Also, I see everyone dosing copper to .50 levels. Mine is at .15 still. In fact it was even lower and the fish starting eating. My scopas wouldn't touch food until today when I realized I had done a large water change yesterday and didn't redose cupramine. Thoughts? What should I do?
A few questions. I'm thinking you are right. I keep going back and forth and then the guy I spoke to yesterday. I just don't know. A few questions. How quickly or how to I does the copper to bring it up? It's a 40 beeeder. Also, I already dosed the main tank with prazi, but being as it's empty, can I throw the chemipure back in and run the uv now?Yes. Copper first (at therapeutic levels ideal) and make sure everyone eating generally before prazi.
Also keep in mind what you describe describes the strain of velvet I had to a T. No classic velvet symptoms for 6 months fish just dropping dead. Wrasse did OK. Until one day a chevron tang developed classic symptoms.
Copper took care of it. Many msny strains of velvet that show or don't show different symptoms.
don't run uv with meds present. I would leave prazi in because it will kill any lingering parasites that may or may not die without hosts: the rest will die during the 72 day fallow period most likely.A few questions.

Don't

Just add copper slowly and use the mentioned copper test kits so you know levels. You should be able to increase by .15 without issue. Wait a couple days then do again by another .15-.2
Even if there is not fish in the tank?
Also, I can just add another .15 of cupramine?
I appreciate everyone's patience. I was also wondering if someone could post a side by side comparison between Ich/velvet?
They're in the gills, where it's easiest for them to attack.What I don't understand is how quickly they would die and have no "outside" visible symptoms.

Doesn't UV help with the free swimmers?
