Hippo tang with ich

[stl_rock_guy]

My blue tang has ich. I have all my fish in qt doing hypo. I'm starting my 6th week of treatment and my tang still has white spots that comes and goes. He eats like a champ still. Does anyone have any advice. Thanks

Yes. Raise the s.g. and treat with cupramine.

What s.g. are you treating with? Precisely calibrated refractometer?

 

[stl_rock_guy]

I keep it at 1.009. Ro water reads 0 on my refractometer.

 

[Mrscribbled]

Some strains are hypo resistant.

 

[stl_rock_guy]

Ok. I'll bring the tank out of hypo and do a cupramine treatment. Should this be done with all the fish in qt or just the tang which is the only one with signs of ich

 

[Mrscribbled]

All fish.

I thought so. Thanks for you're help
