Beth,
I have been on here for a while and just recently registered when I brought a fish home from the store and as soon as acclimating was done and put into the tank I saw there were White spots all over it... I started treatment for it but next morning died and I took it back.
I was checking all the other fish and they looked great till last night. I have a 180 fowlr and 1 snail along with a qt tank by the way... So last night I come home and my 3 damsels are covered in it along with my yellow tang and my one inch Blue hippo tang. I started doing the hyposalinty treatment for the yellow and the two fire fish along with a yellow tail damsel... I am going to treat the main tank due to the order of my 15 crabs, 2 peppermint shrimp, and one yellow watchman that came today... I ordered them last friday before the outbreak started.
I have put the new order in the qt tank but do you think after I am finished lowering the salinity I can then drip in the yellow watchman to the main tank so he too can be treated? My wife just dripped in into the QT tank but maybe tommorrow when the lowering has finished I was going to drip into there...
What do you think? I don't want to lose any more fish... Tank has been up since DEC. 04 and I have not lost a fish since Feb. 05... They all look kinda bad and this hit in one day... I don't know if it was from my sterlizer breaking on thurs. but I need help on what to do for the last 5 fish.
