i just wake up to a really bad case of marine velvet. what is the best way to treat it??

Copper is the standard treatment, however, I tend to doubt that is your problem. What are the symptoms?

ok i have two pink skunks. the symptoms are very rapid breathing, there is a patchy almost slimy looking film on them, they keep rubbing on the rocks. i put them in a hospital tank and treated with copper last night witch i didnt think they were going to make it thought the night but there still swimming today.
