Hi All,
I got this 8-line flasher wrasse 8 days ago. It went straight into my fully cycled 10 gal QT system. test chem and 0 ammonia 0 nitrites.
Wrasse was very shy over the first 6 or so days, so didn't get a chance to observe it at all, but i did eat the NLS pellets. Today i finally managed to observe it swimming around the tank and i noticed what appear to be white dots on the fish's tail, dorsal fin, head and possibly eye. I am suspecting Ick, but please have a look to confirm my diagnosis.
Fish seems otherwise healthy. I do have coperamine on hand, but i heard that it can be difficult on wrasses. Also considering TTM? I would appreciate your thoughts, especially from wrasse experts... @evolved - hoping you can chime in!
as always - thanks a billion!
