Hi
I have had a group of 5 ghost cardinals for 3 or 4 months, all has been well up until the last few days. I noticed that one of them was hanging out alone and upon further inspection I could see that it had spots on both eyes and a split rear fin.
I observed him for a couple of days and saw no improvement and he now is not eating. I did observe some bullying from the other cardinals as well as from my peacock wrasse.
I've now removed him to the sump.
I'd like some advice on what to do, if he makes it through the night. I have a QT set up which currently has some anthias in, so I could put him in there and as I was going to treat the anthias with Prazipro, if he has flukes, ( which I suspect he might), then he might benefit from this as well.
I could also get some more cardinals and hopefully he'll buddy up with those and I could add them all to the tank in one go after QT.
Not sure what else I could do. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks
Lee
