Hello all,
I had what I thought was an Ich outbreak but now after some research I can't seem to figure out which of the "big 3" it is. I wish I could get pictures but my camera isn't that good an you can't see parasites in the picture. Anyways. My 2 clowns and Purple Tang are showing spots (very small, smaller than salt) the most. I can't really see them on my clown goby or foxface. The clowns act fine, but the tang is skiddish and darts around the tank sometimes. Clowns are eating, tang kind of is, not as much though. So, I have a QT set up and I was going to run hypo but I have read that it won't work for velvet or brook, so I am thinking about switching over to doing copper. Will copper work for treating brook and velvet as well? Please help me, I'm new at treating fish.
Params are good enough for corals to be thriving and growing, but I can do a full test today if necessary. Last values checked a month ago:
NH3-0
NO3-5-10
Ca-520
Alk-10 dkh
pH 7.8-8.1 varies throughout the day
