Hi All-
I have a Blue-faced Angel in QT right now that I purchased last week. He has one eye which has become cloudy over the last few days. He is in a 70G QT and upon noticing I began a Cupramine dosing 2 days ago. Should this most likely handle it or should I medicate with something more specific? Attached are some pics of both eyes. Thanks

No, stop using copper. Its unrelated. Copper treats parasites, not infections.
Do a water change to get the copper diluted, but don't make the change so big that it will stress the fish.
Then, start using Maracyn Two for saltwater fish.
I've added your fish to our Diseased Fish Thread. If you prefer I remove it, let me know.

Thanks Beth! I have only applied the 1st dose of Cupramine so it should not be too hard to dilute. I will go out and get some Maracyn this afternoon and begin treatment.
No problem on the picture addition to the Diseased Fish Thread.
Thanks again for your reply.

I'm having a hard time locating any Maracyn Two for Saltwater around here today. Any other suggestions? If not, I will just have to order some.
Thanks
