Hi Guys-
About two months ago, my Achilles tang and aussie tusk were covered in salt like material. I used cupramine, and within a few days it was gone, and kept the cupramine at a .5 level for 35 days in my display tank.
I do not have any sand, and hardly any live rock, so my levels were not absorbed and stayed steady, via seachem test every 3rd day.
Its been 3 weeks since I have removed copper via carbon and water changes. Well low and behold last night, by Achilles, tusk, and emperor angel were covered in white spots again.
I put the first .25 cupramine last night upon seeing it, and it already looks to be helping.
My question is, since I added no new fish since the last copper treatment, I for sure thought 35 days would have been enough to eradicate them?
Could it be I just killed that batch of ich, but it is always being carried on the fish, just a matter of when it strikes?
