Black ich

[lyman28]

This morning I woke up and my scopes tang has black ich. I never treated for this before but won't to my LFS and all they had that would help is prazipro. I don't have a a hospital tank but can set up a 55 gal as one of need be. Question is should i or dose the dt with the prazipro? Or set up the 55 for the prazipro or hyposaliity? Where will I see the best results? The tank is FOLR. Thanks for your help.

Use prazipro. "Black ich" is not really ich.

Ok I have the prazipro, now should I dose it into the DT, or set up another take to treat with the prozipro?

My main concern is never having had this before, I don't know how fast I need do something before I reach a point of no return with the tang. It will take me awhile to make 55 gal to treat the tang in that. Also I don't know how harmful prozipro is to be adding to the main tank.

Sooner is always better than later. Treat it as Steve said! I'm pretty sure he was talking about treating your DT with the Prazipro.
