I feel like im doing something wrong in my QT tank. The other dottyback is on its way out now. My API test kits are registering ammonia, but others have said I can get a false positive. No LFS's have those ammonia badges in my area.

They say not to use prime or Amquel with copper because it had a toxic reaction.poly fiber filter.....I think that is what they are called. They change color depending on what is detected in your system. Prime will reduce amonia.....
Frequent water changes I would think. Idk..Well, according to my API tests, nothing by slightly high nitrates. The fish appear to be breathing a little heavy. What can I do about that? I lost two more wrasses in my main tank.
What's your salinity, do you have a skimmer, is it lacking air transfer? API will not show you metals or toxins.....for example, when we had our first born I started losing stuff and it took me almost 3 months to realize it was the purell on my hands doing it.
I need to know how to do a freshwater dip please. I filled about 2.5 gallons of RO water and added some PH buffer to match. Heater is on to match temp. Anything else?Can I use the same water per fish? Is it OK if it sits out for a bit...the water I mean.

Can I do multiples at a time?Yeah that should work, humble has protocol for freshwater dip. I match temp ph and such as you said. Length of dip is where people differ. Most I've done is 15 mins. Fish will lay on side as long as breathing still and if you poke them they move around you're fine.
You will want a bubbler or something to keep oxygen up. Frequent water agitation with hand will also work.

Never done them but I don't see why not. It's riskier to allow the parasite to suck the life out of them for another few days until copper kicks inAlso, are fairy and flashers ok to dup?
