To the team, I administered a 14-day CopperSafe treatment to the caramel clownfish due to a velvet infection. Although the other two fish did not exhibit symptoms, they were treated concurrently as they shared the same display tank. (Treated in hospital tank)

On day 15, I initiated the process of reducing the copper concentration in the hospital tank to 1 ppm. with a 50% water change that was also performed to mitigate ammonia levels.

Two days subsequently, the caramel clownfish presented with a recurrence of the condition.

Throughout the 14-day period, a consistent copper concentration of 2 ppm was maintained.

Could you provide some help for my situation.
