YW still seems pretty spry despite not eating, but I'm not gonna get my hopes up.
Sole healthy survivor is one percula, who pretty much seems unfazed by the whole ordeal.
I'm wondering if I should have just quarantined those fish who were unaffected by ich (which was most of them), and hypo'd only those who were.
If I ever have another ich outbreak I'm going to try massive water changes within a qt, and failing that I'll try copper.
I now have 3 fish occupying my DT, the percula, the goby, and the imperator I had in a seperate qt.
The FW dip I performed on the imperator seems to have worked wonders.
Lesson learned; always quarantine your new fish
At least I cured my ich

Oh man tankyou, I am so sorry that you had so much trouble. Some people do hypo with not one issue and others who seem to do it completely correctly have so many problems. Again Iam very sorry that you have gone through such an ordeal treating your tank.
