Yellow Tang with Septicemia

[byrdman81]

I have a Yellow Tang that has had septicemia for a couple weeks. I am currently on the 2nd five day treatment of Maracyn- TWO for SW fish. The fish is eating algae sheets and mysis shrimp again but still has red streak on him. Has anyone else ever had this problem and cured it using another medication. IF so could you tell me what it is because this med doesnt seem to be working.

My did and fought it and went again. Unfortunately, it came back and I think I stressed it out when I pulled the clowns from the tank to put in QT.

Next day, he was dead on the sand with red spots all over.

I think if it's feeding keep doing so. It'll eventually beat it.

i would use something like general cure. it has both metro and prazipro in it and will tackle alot of different ailments.
