flame angel cut

[ionredline0260]

I have my flame angel in a QT that I am treating for ich and I noticed what apears to be a cut on him today. Do I need to do any thing? medicate with any thing? worry?

how are you treating for ich most medicnes are a 1 at a time sort of thing.

I don't know what you are medicating with so it is difficult to recommend an antibiotic.

[ionredline0260]

Cupramine.

 

[TerryB]

Nitrofurazone if you can find it, Furanase, or Maracyn-Two (Use double dose if M2).

I just checked on the angel and the cut apears to have gotten bigger..I'm really worried now..

Cupramine is the only copper that I trust, but I still prefer hyposalinity for ich. Test your copper level twice a day and add more as needed. If your Qtank is not cycled then you are going to have a tough time keeping the angel alive. Did you get one of the antibiotics I suggested? One of the first two are better choices in this case and I would lean toward Furanase.
