ICH, Cupramine, Salinity & Temp?

mkjohnson1990 said:
very interested to see the results after raising to .5mg/L.....all mine have been doing great since getting the new test kit and keeping copper levels up. So all of the above fish are in the same tank? I'm no expert but I do remember reading about tattered fins being a different disease than ich possibly. Might look into that!

yes, the tattered fins are a sign of Flukes.
I retreated w/ prazi pro

Did you treat with prazi pro AND copper in the same tank? Just curious how you did it.

My apologies for not seeing this sooner.....

About the ONLY medications that I have seen used together is Prazi Pro & Cupramine.

I just dosed both as directed....
There are alot of people who will treat everything with Prazi Pro... there are some who will treat with cupramine and copper regardless of any signs of anything.
I know that if I had treated them all with Prazi Pro, the Achillies would still be here. I have read that the cupramine CAN (not necessarily will) have long term effects .. but not with the Prazi..

The Purple still shows signs of ich. i have carefully increased dosage to the full .05 mg/L


The sailfin in the DT has been spot free for 7 days so I am starting the salinity climb back to 35ppm fingers crossed that the little buggers dont return!

Just making sure you meant to type 0.50mg/L, because 0.05 is way too low. :)

Yea... oops...

Today hopes to be a big day.....

I intend to have the 375DT to 1.024- 1.025 so I can transfer the 5) PJ Cardnals that have been patiently waiting in the 55QT...

Then I will clean the 55, refill and transfer the Foxface, Blonde Naso, Anthias and Lamrick out of the 75 HT and let the Purple continue solo.
The anthias is NOT liking the .5mg/L so I want to get him out into clean water today!

happy sunday to all!

Good to know about the Prazi Pro, so just for future reference, do you (or anyone else following along) usually treat your new fish in QT with Prazi Pro or Cupramine? I'm about to the point to return my fish to the main tank and will leave a QT setup for new fish. Thanks for all the info from this thread! Also, in your last post you talk about a Lamrick? Never heard of those and cant seem to find any info on them, is there any other names for these?

P.S. Good luck today on your endeavors. Sounds like you got an early enough start on the day!
