Looking for input on continuing antibiotics

A mostly good news thread for a change :) I received a new, small kole tang and right away I noticed a large white patch on the right side. Of course, it won't cooperate for pictures. It was already just into TTM while a flame angel waits its turn so what will become the observation period tank was occupied. I continued with TTM and sped it up to about 48 hours to match the antibiotic dosing so is due for another move later today.

Huge improvement. It has gone from fearing it wouldn't make it another hour and hiding with clamped fins to coming out of the PVC to see what we are doing. It's still not eating much, but starting to nibble just a little on a veggie clip, as well as some mysis we tried.

So, below is my TTM log. I'm not sure if I should continue antibiotics or not now, or maybe cut it back to only the Furan2, or Kanaplex/Metroplex combo. I'm leaning to maintaining what's obviously working, but at least for the Furan2 not sure how long is ok to continue it. The angel is also now out of the 29g and starting TTM in another room so it can dry and be ready when the tang is done with his solitary confinment. Thanks!!
