I have a couple Blue/Green Chromis in my 20 gal QT. One of them is doing very well, active, eating, looks healthy and happy. The other one doesn't look very good. His coloring seems OK, but he appears thin. Also, he has long, white feces attached to him. He also hides much more and only comes out during feeding times. After feeding, he swims with his buddy for a little bit, then goes and hides. From my research, it appears as if he may have hexamita.
My question is what is the best way to treat him? He does seem to try to eat, but spits out most of what I give me. I have tried pellet, frozen, Spiraluna and flake.
My current QT setup is 20 gal high AGA, Penguim 280 Biowheel filter, SeaClone skimmer and about 30 lbs LR. I know that generally, I should not have the LR in my QT. However, it was extra I had and I figured it wouldn't hurt.
Ideally, the treatment I provide will be for him but also as a preventative for his buddy and also to kill any of the parasite that may be in the rock.
Thanks for your help!

I have been calling around trying to find it and I think I did find it at my LFS.
