Beth, or any others with advice please help!
i had a break out of ick in the DT, so i caught the fish and have them in 2 seperate QT tanks.
my 29g Tall , cycled QT tank contained at first my CBBF, CB Angel, Exquisite Wrasse and 2 blue neon gobies. the tank went under Hypo just as ick was starting to cover the angel. i was away on vacation and an accident with the lid left open, led to the loss of the wrasse and 1 goby. the tank has been in Hypo for 2 .5 weeks now, no signs of ick for 2.5 weeks on any of the fish. the CBBF looks great and very hungry. same with the neon goby. the CB Angel broke out in what i can only assume is Lympho, but not the type i have encountered before that spots on the fins, but the type that builds up flesh mounds, and in this case, made her mouth enlarged and white and fleshy. i have not seen her eat in a week now. she is very hungry and swims right up to the food, but then cant eat it and gives up. it is sad to watch.
it continues to get worse and all i have done is keep an eye on the parameters and perform water changes to keep the water clean.
the trates are around 5- 10 ppm which should be barely affecting the angel, everything else is spot on. I am thinking she is having trouble getting better because of the hypo. this friday is the end of hypo, but i dont know if she will even make it that long. does anyone have ideas on what i can do to better her situation? I have heard vitamin - C supplementation can help them fight it.
