Currently 2 weeks into cupramine treatment. Down to 3 fish, lost 4. The fish that are left seem to be much healthier and are finally swimming around.

Question is once the copper treatment is done and removed, should I treat with prazipro since they’re already in qt as a precautionary? I’ve had the fish for about 3 months and never saw any symptoms of anything else, then again I also don’t quite know exactly what I’m looking for. I’d assume I’d be okay but now I’m paranoid lol. TIA

Treatment with prazi after 30 days of copper is suggested as it will be to a degree a final cleanse to sssure risks are greatly reduced
Apply prazi at 85% of recommended dosage and apply it to last 8 days. Day 9 and change water then then apply one more application lasting 8 days and you’re done with prazi treatment
Add air stone with prazi which reduces oxygen and appetite a little
