Hello,
Been in and out of the hobby for 25+ years, recently coming back since 2013ish. Doing a bit of research I guess Uronema is a big issue these days, never even heard of it until now. Always been Copper + Prazi for QT.
Anyhow, I have a regal tang coming in today which I will QT and is being introduced into 1.018sg water with 1ppm Copper Power, following humblefish's QT protocol. 2 days later I have 9 Black Axil Chromis coming in from QM/LA. I just want to make sure I have the protocol right when they get here:
Temp acclimate - Ruby Reef Rally dip for 90 minutes - transfer to QT and continue Humble Fish Protocol?
Problem is my QT water already has copper in it for the Regal Tang. Will I be OK to mix a Fresh batch of water and temp/salinity adjust for the Rally dip and transfer after dip to QT tank? Or am I OK taking the QT water out for the Rally dip even though it has copper in it? Best method here? Obviously the Regal and Chromis will be QT'd together and dont plan on raising Copper until all fish in the QT 940 gallon breeder).
Any advise appreciated for success, Thanks!
