Well, the PBT is not getting any better.
The spots on him dropped off for a period of time but have now resurfaced(the normal ich cycle). The yellow tang is looking much better however. I have decided to empty the 220 of LR, catch the fish and get them all in a QT. I only have a 55 so frequent water changes and 3 Mangum HOB filter will be needed. I will leave my display tank empty for 6 weeks and clean the meds out with carbon. My questions are:
1. I need to run hypo on the QT to treat the ich but the YT still has a fungal or bacterial infection. Can I run hypo with the bac/fungal meds or shoud I hold off on the meds until the stress of hypo is gone and the salinity is back to normal?.
2. With the DT having so many meds in it right now, am I better off setting up the QT with fresh saltwater and acclimating the fish or should I go ahead and use the DTs water and change it out with the water changes?
Now saturday morning and I am headed off to work. Beth, whatever corse of action you recommend is the route I am taking
when I get home this evening. I have plenty of water, both RO/DI and salt at the ready. What do you think about a formaldehyde dip between tanks or will this create more unnessasary stess?
