Brought home an oscillaris clown and regal tang three weeks ago. Placed them in my q tank. (set up like a hospital tank). First week great then on the 9th day they showed signs of ich.
Treated with one treatment purported as saltwater safe but non copper but it did nothing. Ordered an received Copper Tru and treated the tank as directed. Did a 25% water change as directed.
After three days I see no signs of ich. The directions aren't clear on how often I treat the tank.
Now that the spots are gone should I just wait a couple of weeks to make sure no new outbreak?
When should I add carbon back to remove copper?
Should I continue water changes?
The directions with the Copper Tru weren't very good.
I know hyposalinity is the treatment of choice but I didn't feel confident enough to try it this time.
Any help would be appreciated.
