I lost 2/5 very quickly to uronema. The remaining 3 i did fresh water dips between tank transfers while dosing MetroPlex. The remaining 3 made it through QT and have been healthy since. Good luck!

That's the plan I am following.. I am sure they will kill each other off down the road when healthy
Lots of gambles in this hobby... I had a clownfish kill a 250 dollar wrasse in a 210 gallon tank! The clown actually left his anemone and went hunting for the wrasse. Crazy killer clownfish! that I had for 10 years and never bothered any of his tank mates.
^^ This is great advice. By moving the fish from tank to tank, you are moving them out of their diseased environment. Eventually parasite levels should be low enough for metro to completely eliminate what's left.

Little update :
All 4 remaining Chromis are doing excellent, just did the second tank transfer and have been dosing MetroPlex .. They are highly active and all have huge appetites ..
