How long to QT an anemone to prevent fish diseases

[Agioniko]

This is the anemone next to the coffee cup

Mouth was gaping open this morning. This is slightly less. Notice the discharge? Would you give a higher dose of cipro like the sticky suggests by one of the authors?

 

[D-Nak]

I think it looks okay. Unless it fully deflates, I would keep the dosage the same. The discharge is completely normal.

This is he anemone currently. I think raising the temp to 79 helped. I run my displays at 77.5. Will this be a problem? Would you bump up the display temp. My other nems don't seem to mind it.

 

[Agioniko]

Also thanks for all the help. Really appreciate it.

I think the anemone looks OK. I would not increase the dosage of the medication. I keep my reef at 81 F. My fish anemones and corals doing just fine. Do you have to run a chiller to keep it that low?

 

[Agioniko]

No not at all. Really the opposite problem being in the North East and in an a basement that's 65 it's my heaters.

Orion is a 25% daily water change ok, or would you do a 50%?

He looks really good! Glad things are doing good for you so far.

The temp is fine, stay on course looking good.

Is it deflating at all?

 

[Agioniko]

He's deflated in the morning. Hasn't looked as bad recently. Going to treat for the duration.

 

[worm5406]

Yes very good idea.

 

[Agioniko]

So have treated for 7 days with cipro. Should I keep treating. Last couple of days it's been looking great. Hasnt deflated at all

 

[Agioniko]

From this morning

You can treat until he have not deflate for 3 or 4 days, then move to DT. He looks good.
