I have had a powder blue in a 30g qt since 6/12. I kept him in with rocks for 2 weeks but decided that it is probably best to hypo just in case. When I removed the rocks out to do hypo he instantly showed signs of ick all over from stress I assume.
I proceeded to lower sg to hypo but with being busy it took 3-4 days if I recall.
He has been eating fine and has shown no signs of ich since hypo which has been 6 weeks now. I do recall it may have gotten to 1.010 when we had a bad lightning strike and was very busy repairing damaged computers etc. which was 4 weeks ago. I have since kept it at 1.008-1.009. I have been bringing him out of hypo for 4 days now and it is at 1.020 so far.
Is he safe to go in the DT or should I now also do cupramine? I read somehere that ich can adapt to low sg so if this is true then I have solved nothing.
