Is it ok to treat with copper formalin and maracyn 2 at same time?

[shortbusldtang]

I have all my fish in a ht and i'm treating with copper. First off Oop I barely adjust my cheap heater and the temp went to like 85 degrees. Well when I found this out it seemed like my fish were broke out again really bad . This supports the idea of raising temperature to spead up cycle huh ..... Now i'm lookin at my blue hippo tang and not only does he have white spots / ich but he seems to hae black specks on him at the same time What am I to do. Will copper treat both or do I need to treat with formalin at the same time? Also why they were in there and all together I figured if it was ok since my yellow tang has red on his lips and it was suggested that this might be ba cterial to treat with maracyn 2 ( Why not while they are in there )... Should I do only one at a time? Two of the three? All three? I'm up for any suggestions or help that I can get.

You cannot mix the medications. Is the yellow tang eating? If so then rotate Selcon and Zoecon on his food. Are you certain that the tangs have black ich? How big are the black spots?

My Hippo tang was the only one that showed any signs of black ich. They are very small... bout the size of a needle maybe a bit bigger. He's reallymcloudy in color too. I"m wondering if that is from stress? Only other fish taht is effected right now is the powdeer blue tang and he just has white ich. I do hae all the fish in the ht though. naso tang 3 clowns hippo and powder blue.

You have to do bathes with black ich. The procedure is in the FAQ Thread at the top of this forum. Can you post pictures of your fish?
What are you water readings at this point?
