All I got for Christmas was some coal... and ich!! Anyone have copper handy??

Morning folks and Merry Christmas to those that be a celebratin' this AM. Got a Genicanthus in QT that's been looking great for more than a week... until last night. She's covered in white spots and I have no copper handy. Anyone out there have extra that I might borrow? I'm treating a 10 gallon so I don't need much.

Hope Santa has left you all better goodies than mine!!

Merry Christmass to you to man! No copper here, but I have malachite green and ich attack. Both are sealed and I have no clue if they are effective.

Merry Christmas! I've got some Rid-Ich+, an amazingly effective, copper free, FMG formulation (Formaldehyde + Malachite Green), if you need it.

Bottle's been open for years. But I don't think it loses potency over time.

Thanks, guys. We'll see if she survives the night. She's not looking so hot at the moment. These spots happened literally overnight.

Hey Mike, how did the angel do? Tough break.

She was toast the next morning. Good thing I didn't release her directly into the DT! Hope yours is doing better. She was looking totally awesome ahead of that.

GA credited me but not sure what amount they're crediting. If it's the sale price, I'll need to wait until the sale is on again to get a comparable deal. Still, I'm very happy with the Lobophyllia I bought that day - it's purdy (and hungry!!). Jason was also solid to correspond with via email.

ohh that's too bad, that was a beautiful swallowtail. I didn't QT the Bellus and she is doing really well. She is a deeper water species and didn't want to stress her out any more then she has been already.

Glad the Lobo is doing well. You'll have to post a pic so everyone can see the fine specimen.

Glad you've fared better with the Bellus. Definitely a beautiful fish.

Here's the Lobo, though I don't think the photo does it justice. It looks OK under the 10K but it gets really crazy with the actinics. I need to get one of those view boxes so I can snap stuff like this top-down!!

That's a beautiful Lobo under the actinics. Wow. :thumbsup: Thanks for sharing.
