So I notice my new clown has a white "film" appearance to her skin. I come one here and look and what do you know, its Brooklynella. So I run out and go crazy trying to find Fomalin, and all the typical LFS's that I shop at are closed at 3pm on Sunday, luckily one I don't normally shop at has the stuff.
I used a gallon of tank water and 2 tsp of Fomalin 3 as it says on the package, and let her soak with a powerhead for 40 minutes (says on the package limit to a max of 50 minutes). She seems much better, happily swimming in my QT. I read here that I should repeat this treatment every other day for 3 treatments.
So I just wanted to double check, what is the risk to the other 2 fish (engineer goby, yellow tail blue damsel) of contracting this disease, should I treat them too?
And how long should I QT the clownfish before returning her to the main tank?
Thanks much
