i know its uncommon but my seahorse has got white spot along with my other fish. I've got them soaking in Cupramine with daily freshwater baths but how do i treat the seahorse who i know is hyper-sensitive to copper and shouldn't be given freshwater baths either???? Apart from adding garlic to his food which I've already done.
 
Unfortunately was too late for my skunk clowns, baby volitan lionfish, and baby scopaz tang also :'( My blue-spot puffer was looking extremely sick there for a while too and wasn't eating but i decided to put him back in the other tank with the seahorse and he's come good (i've got a sneaking suspision the cupramine was doing more harm than good). In fact they both have excellent appetites and are looking healthier than ever at the moment.

I dropped the salinity in the main tank (a little bit) and am trying to get my hands on formalin for future emergencies but even pet wholesalers in Perth don't carry it, i'm not sure if they are allowed to here.
